Project Management
EVCresco is a comprehensive Earned Value Management System purpose-built for organizations that demand rigorous cost and schedule performance analysis, baseline change control, and data-driven decision making.
Everything You Need for EVM Excellence
From variance analysis to risk management, EVCresco provides a unified platform for earned value management that integrates with your existing Cobra and Primavera P6 infrastructure.
Variance Analysis Dashboard
Current and cumulative schedule/cost variance analysis with configurable threshold tripping. Auto-generated Cause/Impact/Corrective Action narratives with rich text editing for CAM review and submission.
Baseline Change Proposals
Full lifecycle BCP management with sequential approval routing through CAM, WPM, and role-based approvers. Time-phased cost impact tables, schedule comparison from P6, and WBS field-level change tracking with electronic signatures.
Trend Management
EAC-focused trend tracking with approval workflows mirroring the BCP process. Captures EAC impact by control account with time-phased before/after comparison, remaining-unit schedule analysis from P6, and automated notification routing.
CAM Notebooks
Comprehensive control account notebooks that consolidate S-curve performance charts, CPR tables, variance narratives, BCPs, trends, WADs, WBS dictionary content, and the risk register into a single printable document per CAM.
Risk Management
Full risk register with configurable likelihood/consequence matrices, auto-calculated risk levels, handling strategies with residual scoring, and cost impact tracking. Site-level defaults seed new projects for consistency.
Work Authorization Documents
Automatically generated WADs from approved BCPs with chronological revision numbering per WBS element. Captures authorized scope, exit criteria, contract reference, BAC before/after, and electronically signed authorization records.
Project Intelligence
AI-powered conversational assistant that queries your live project data to answer questions about EVM performance, variance drivers, change control status, schedule logic, and risk exposure. Powered by Claude with 28 tool functions that access your Cobra and P6 data in real time.
Comprehensive Reporting
Twenty-plus report types covering BAC/EAC impact and detail at CA and WP levels, schedule impact, variance analysis, BCP/trend reviews, CAM notebooks, RAM, labor variance, CBBL log, and the full DoD IPMR (Formats 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7) suite. All printable.
IPMR Compliance Reporting
Built-in Integrated Program Management Report support for the DoD-required Formats 1 (WBS), 2 (OBS), 3 (Baseline), 4 (Staffing), 5 (Explanations), and 7 (History). Each format includes a print-optimized variant for submittal packages.
Schedule Health & DCMA-14
Automated schedule quality assessment running the DCMA 14-Point Assessment against P6 schedules — logic, leads, lags, hard constraints, high float, negative float, missed tasks, critical path test, and more. Sits alongside a higher-level Schedule Health summary view.
EVMS Compliance Testing
Automated EVMS surveillance test suite that exercises Cobra and P6 data against the EIA-748 guideline set. Captures pass/fail results per test, retains run history for audit, and produces print-ready compliance reports for DCMA or self-surveillance reviews.
Reserve & Cost Controls
Cumulative Budget Baseline (CBBL) log, Management Reserve and Undistributed Budget transaction tracking, Critical Items / high-dollar register, and labor variance decomposition (rate vs. usage vs. mix) for full cost-side traceability beyond standard variance analysis.
Built for EVM Professionals
Variance Analysis Engine
Configurable threshold tripping with directional breach logic requiring both index delta and dollar magnitude to agree before flagging a variance
Current and cumulative SV/CV drivers at work package level or rolled up by configurable CAWP code fields (C1-C20)
Variance at Completion analysis with BAC vs EAC comparison, TCPI, and TCPI margin per work package
P6 schedule impact integration comparing current forecast to prior forecast and baseline at the activity level
Auto-generated narratives from customizable templates with Cause/Impact/Corrective Action structure
Change Control System
Sequential approval chain routing through CAM, WPM, and configurable role-based approvers with electronic signatures
Time-phased cost impact tables showing before/after/delta by month across current FY, FY+1, FY+2, and future periods
P6 schedule comparison with activity-level start/finish changes, labor hour deltas, and WBS reassignment tracking
WBS dictionary updates with field-level before/after change tracking for title, CAM, WPM, OBS, scope, exit criteria, and contract reference
Automated WAD generation with chronological revision numbering and authorizing signature blocks
Reporting Suite
BAC and EAC impact reports comparing any two Cobra programs to quantify baseline or estimate changes by control account, with WP-level detail variants
Schedule impact reports with P6 activity-level delta analysis supporting both target units (BCPs) and remaining units (trends)
DoD IPMR submittal package — Formats 1 (WBS), 2 (OBS), 3 (Baseline), 4 (Staffing), 5 (Explanations), and 7 (History) with print variants
Schedule Health and DCMA 14-Point assessments scoring P6 logic, leads/lags, constraints, float distribution, and missed tasks
Labor Variance decomposition separating cost variance into rate, usage, and mix components for sharper root-cause analysis
RAM, CBBL log, BCP/trend reviews, and CAM notebooks — printable governance documents covering responsibility assignment, baseline change history, and per-CAM month-end packages
Print-ready across all modules — variance analyses, BCPs, trends, WADs, risk register, CAM notebooks, and WBS dictionary all produce paginated print views
Structure & Governance
Hierarchical WBS management with WBS/CA/WP type classification, Cobra import, CAM/WPM assignment, and OBS mapping
WBS dictionary templates with per-type scope, exit criteria, and contract reference templates loadable into new elements
Organization breakdown structure with hierarchical OBS management and external subcontractor classification
Role-based access control with site admin, project admin, editor, and viewer roles governing every action in the system
Project configuration with Cobra program mapping, P6 baseline/forecast selection, fiscal year settings, and threshold configuration
AI Project Intelligence
Conversational chat interface where project managers and CAMs can ask natural-language questions about project performance, variance drivers, change control status, and risk exposure
28 tool functions across five tool categories: project data, EVM performance, change control (BCPs/trends/WADs), risk management, and P6 schedule analysis — the AI queries your live data, never fabricates
Threshold and variance analysis — ask which control accounts have tripped thresholds, what's driving schedule or cost variance, and how metrics are trending between periods
Risk exposure summaries — get aggregated risk statistics, cost exposure breakdowns, and top risks by cost impact without navigating through multiple screens
Change control status — query BCP and trend details, approval status, WBS impacts, and EAC deltas through conversation instead of drilling through individual records
Schedule logic analysis — ask the AI to find late activities, list milestones, trace driving predecessors, or explain why a key date moved between two P6 schedules without leaving the chat
Per-user conversation history with markdown-rendered responses including formatted tables, code blocks, and structured data — each user maintains their own private chat context
Connects to Your Infrastructure
EVCresco reads directly from your existing Cobra and Primavera P6 databases, and leverages AI to make your project data conversational.
Cobra Integration
Direct database connection to Cobra for real-time BCWS, BCWP, ACWP, BAC, and EAC data. Time-phased budget and EAC snapshots for BCP and trend impact analysis. Fiscal calendar synchronization for period-accurate reporting.
Primavera P6 Integration
Reads P6 activity schedules for baseline vs forecast comparison. Supports WBS-based and activity-code-based task resolution. Cached delta reports with automatic invalidation when P6 data changes. Target and remaining unit analysis.
Enterprise Platform
Supports both Oracle and SQL Server P6 & Cobra implementations. Multi-level authorization with site and project roles. Notification system for approval routing. Rich text editing with ActionText. Responsive design from desktop to tablet.
AI Intelligence
Powered by local or cloud AI with tool calling. The AI queries your live Cobra and P6 data through specialized functions — it never guesses, only reports what the data says. Per-user conversation history with markdown rendering.
