Who determines how the CPR and the IMS will be tailored?
A. The program manager is ultimately responsible for determining how EVM reporting will be tailored, but the degree of tailoring must be appropriate and allowable within the bounds of the EVM policy. Both the CPR and the IMS are tailorable for contracts valued at less than $50 million. For example, reporting frequency, submission dates, and level of detail can be negotiated. All relevant risk factors should be considered when determining the degree of tailoring that is appropriate. Detailed guidance on tailoring the CPR and the IMS resides in the DoD Earned Value Management Implementation Guide.
