Abstract

the use of Earned Value Management (EVM) is of paramount importance for the successful delivery of construction projects. This paper evaluates the use of EVM in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) construction industry and identifies the key factors for its successful implementation. The success factors are identified through literature review. The paper is based on the assessment of survey responses from project managers and cost engineers in the UAE construction industry. The results were assessed based on 53 responses. The analysis revealed that several companies are using EVM in their cost control systems. However, big portion of UAE's construction companies are not using EVM. Although many companies are not implementing EVM, the project showed that 87% of responses agreed on the necessity of EVM implementation as cost control tool.
