Abstract: Project management has an increasingly important role in the current construction field. In a construction project, a project manager aims to finish on time, within budget and according to the specifications and quality standards. Moreover, the priority is for a satisfied client. Need for analytical and quantitative tools have become significant with increasing demand for cost effectiveness and quality. Earned Value Management (EVM) is a management tool that has the potential to integrate cost, schedule and technical performance. The present work is an attempt to study the effectiveness of EVM in the control of a big construction project.
