Rolling Wave

Most projects that perform weekly earned value analysis implement a process called rolling wave planning.

This process expands the data to weekly periods for a window; typically one month prior and three months forward of the current date. This reduces the time phased budget data compared to what would be stored if the entire project were stored weekly.

The DCMA 14 point w/EV Method metrics use a Rolling Wave field variable in the High Duration metric to identify planning package activities that have not been detail planned and therefore are not evaluated in the High Duration metric.
