Belzon's management services can help plan and manage projects while integrating technical, operational, risk and environmental requirements within schedule and cost constraints. By utilizing years of experience in project management, clients are provided with solid projections as to the financial impacts and other consequences of a course of action. Belzon knows how to simultaneously manage the four base elements of a project; resources, time, money and scope.

Project Planning
Belzon's expert planners support clients by providing strategic planning, implementation, and strategic management services. We help clients identify specific project goals, objectives, and strategies to bring a project successfully through its life cycle.

Earned Value Management System
Belzon performs Earned Value Management System (EVMS) support to establish a baseline plan for performance management during the execution phases of a project or program. Earned value management analysis provides clients with a balance of management oversight for technical (performance), cost (resources), and schedule (time) program factors. EVM also generates cost and schedule information in a different way than traditional schedules and cost reports. Based on the concept that completed tasks and products add value to a project, EVM compares this earned value with the expected value to determine if a sufficient amount of work has been completed as a project proceeds. This enables a client to determine if the resources spent to date are appropriate by comparing the value of the work completed with the resources consumed. Belzon's EVMS work provides clients with better visibility into overall program performance, resulting in optimum program planning and control.
