This webinar will shed light on how the Logical Framework Approach can blend with Earned Value Management to provide progress reporting for development projects.

The Logical Framework Matrix is a planning tool that is mostly used for development projects. It provides information concerning project Goals, Outcomes, Outputs and Activities which map to PMI’s terminology of Program Benefits, Project Objectives/Final Product, Deliverables, and Activities.

The key points here are the indicators for each of the 4 aforementioned concepts. The indicators are a way of verifying whether the project is on track or not, and thus they can be mapped to the EVM indicators to provide better progress reports.

This is a collaborative webinar between ID CoP and EVM CoP on the application of Logical Framework Approach and Earned Value Management in project management.
