Management Guide to Cost Schedule Control Systems Criteria: The Management Guide to C/SCSC
In 1967 the Dept of Defense issued directive 7000.2 specifying 35 detailed criteria, with which any firm doing business with the DOD must comply or run the risk of being passed over for new military contract awards.
Since then the DPE and NASA, as well as over 200 American firms in the private sector, have set guidelines similar to this historic directive. A cadre of specialists has emerged over the past few decades for the sole purpose of helping large and small businesses that wish to compete for new government contracts to cope with C/SCSC.
Previously contractor management control systems had focused on 2 the 'plan,' and the 'cost actuals.' C/SCSC has now added a third 'earned value,' or the physical work that was actually performed for the resources that were spent. With the addition of this 3rd element, government program managers have been better able to forecast the final costs and scheduled results of the many programs they must manage.
this book proves thorough coverage of subjects such 1) basics of cost control 2) scheduling fundamentals 3) implementation of C/SCSC 4) Critical C/SCSC Issues.
In addition, a complete appendix of US Government C/SCSC documents & a glossary of terms are included.
