The following tables summarize DoD policy and Guides for integrating Earned Value with the technical baselines and technical performance.
DoD policy is DoD Instruction 5000.02 (POL).
Guides:
· Defense Acquisition Guidebook (DAG)
• Systems Engineering Plan Outline (SEP) • Work Breakdown Structure Standard, MIL-STD-881C (WBS)
• Integrated Master Plan and Integrated Master Schedule Preparation and Use Guide (IMP/IMS).
• Guide for Integrating SE into DOD Acquisition Contracts (Integ SE)
Defense Acquisition Program Support Methodology (DAPS)
