The aim is clearly to determine the causes of a variation, which is, in simple words, the difference between an expected result and an actual result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of analysis can help the project manager to accurately identify the factors that influence each element of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This analysis also helps further identify the causes and assess the severity of the deviation.<br><a name=\"steps\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The steps of the variance analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Analyzing the deviations, or variances, <\/strong>is not difficult, however it requires a great deal of discipline in the collection and interpretation of data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To begin with, the project manager identifies the deviation in the basic performance, then establishes the causes of the deviations and assesses the severity of the impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next step for the PM is to implement corrective actions in order to restore the project&#8217;s performance. Finally, another task is to propose preventive actions in order to avoid similar future events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A well-structured <strong>analysis of variance<\/strong> should include the following aspects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Identify the relevant <strong>key performance indicators.<\/strong><\/li><li>Evaluate the extent of the deviation.<\/li><li>Assess the degree of impact on project performance.<\/li><li>Identify the <strong>causes of the variance change.<\/strong><\/li><li>Establish corrective action.<\/li><li>Estimate the resources needed to implement the corrective action.<\/li><li>Establish a time schedule for implementing the corrective action.<\/li><li>Recommend preventive action.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a name=\"analysis\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Analysis of deviations in Project Management<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Project Management, the analysis of the deviations can be traced back to 4 fundamental steps. These are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Scope control<\/li><li>Program control<\/li><li>Cost control<\/li><li>Risk control<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s see them in detail.<br><a name=\"scope\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scope control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most projects undergo frequent changes to the purpose of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, the <a href=\"https:\/\/twproject.com\/blog\/create-project-team-7-tips-identifying-approving-supplying-best\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">project teams<\/a>&nbsp;cannot control the changes and, consequently, fail to verify their impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This uncontrolled expansion in the scope of the project, without changes to planning, budget, risks, and resources, is known as &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Scope_creep\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">scope creep<\/a>&#8220;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The steps <strong>to control changes to the project scope<\/strong> include mainly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Implementation of change control processes.<\/li><li>The periodic review of the basic forecast of the project.<\/li><li>Monitoring of project tracking on a regular basis in order to visualize changes to the project&#8217;s purpose.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a name=\"program\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Program control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The analysis of deviations <\/strong>as a program control technique is part of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twproject.com\/blog\/the-earned-value-method\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Earned Value Management<\/a> \u2013 EVM<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The EVM uses measures such as <strong>Schedule Variance (SV)<\/strong> and <strong>Schedule Performance Index (SPI)<\/strong> to indicate variances and performance efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are many organizations that do not use EVM techniques to control project planning, but use similar techniques to measure deviations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These techniques mainly include measurement changes on the planned start and end dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure

goals with respect to the basic plan.<br><a name=\"cost\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cost control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Without doubts, <a href=\"https:\/\/twproject.com\/blog\/project-cost-management-implement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">project cost control<\/a> is a crucial aspect of monitoring and controlling any project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mainly in this case, the cost variance (CV), the cost performance index (CPI) and the completion variance (VAC) are used to establish the cost variances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are organizations that do not implement EVM techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, these organizations implement procedures that track the actual expected costs on certain project activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Comparing then the actual cost forecast with the approved budget, the change in costs is obtained.<br><a name=\"risk\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Risk control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twproject.com\/blog\/project-risk-analysis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The risk analysis of the project<\/a> uses the data obtained from the analysis of the scope, program, and variance costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This not only helps the project manager and the project team to establish risk thresholds, but also to confront the existing ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the risk changes exceed the desired threshold, the <strong>project risk mitigation plans <\/strong>are implemented.<br><a name=\"causes\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causes of project variances<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The projects provide a unique product or service, however, they are subject to various changes during their life cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actual key performance indicators, therefore, can go against the desired project performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key to successful project management lies in managing these changes and variances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Refusing changes is not a solution. In fact, changes can also have a positive impact on project results. Rejecting them a priori would be counterproductive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The factors responsible for changing the project&#8217;s performance may be different and here we have a list of them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Changes within the project triggered by the end user or project team in order to meet contractual obligations.<\/li><li>Lack of resources, such as skilled labor, availability of equipment and material.<\/li><li>Estimates of the duration of incorrect activities.<\/li><li>Improper identification of critical activities.<\/li><li>Reviews of improper and incorrect projects.<\/li><li>Lack or poor implementation of project monitoring and control processes.<\/li><li>Poor risk assessment.<\/li><li>Not using change control procedures.<\/li><li>Changes in the regulatory framework.<\/li><li>Evolving business needs.<\/li><li>Changes of the requirements by end users.<\/li><li>Market factors such as changes in commodity prices, changes in exchange rates, etc.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The analysis of the deviations <\/strong>is therefore fundamental for the success of a project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is essential that these data are always monitored during the entire project cycle in order to avoid identifying a problem too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clearly, the use of a <strong>project management software<\/strong> can help keep project values monitored as well as promptly visualize variances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially with regard to complex projects involving different stakeholders, the use of a PM software can be fundamental in order not to loose sight of important and fundamental values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Twproject <\/strong>has all the tools needed to prevent and monitor project deviations, from its interactive Gantt, through its resource allocation system and continuing with project cost management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/demo.twproject.com\/applications\/teamwork\/welcome\/createUserEnvironment.jsp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Try it out for free<\/a> in all its functionalities and let us know which tools you found most effective for your work team!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"tw_promobox box_type2 sOrange sFilter sImage\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/cdn.twproject.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/picjumbo.com_HNCK5096-860.jpg');\">\n<div class=\"av_promobox avia-button-yes avia-builder-el-1 el_after_av_promobox avia-builder-el-last\">\n<div>\n<h2>Analyse your project with Twproject<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"avia-button-wrap avia-button-right \"><a class=\"avia-button avia-icon_select-no avia-color-custom avia-size-xlarge\" href=\"https:\/\/demo.twproject.com\/applications\/teamwork\/welcome\/createUserEnvironment.jsp\"><span class=\"avia_iconbox_title\">Try it now<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"avia-promofooter\">One try is worth a million words.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project variance analysis is an important technique that allows project teams to constantly compare planned performance with actual project data.
