    Additional-- Clarification Regarding Earned Value Management

    Per OMB Memorandum M-05-23, full implementation of an EVMS for IT investments includes compliance reviews of agency and contractor EVM systems. The EPA must determine that the contractors comply with the FAR clauses requiring EVMS in compliance with the ANSI/EIA Standard 748. In order to streamline the compliance review process EPA requires a letter from each contractor certifying that the FAR clauses related to EVM are being implemented. These activities include following the ANSI/EIA Standard 748 elements and establishing a timeline for receiving ANSI/EIA Standard 748 certification. A sample template of the contractor EVM compliance certification letter is provided. The Office of Acquisition Management (OAM) coordinated the collection of the initial contractor certification letters. For any new investments, the letter must be received at the same time the first quarterly EVM report is submitted.
