P6 Earned Value Report

Quick start

1. Download the skill and drop it into your project
2. Connect the PyP6Xer MCP server (instructions included)
3. Upload or link any XER file and ask for an earned value report

The problem

Earned value reporting in P6 means navigating multiple screens, exporting to Excel, and building the report manually. If the XER file does not have costs loaded, you are stuck. Most project teams avoid EVM because the reporting is too painful, not because the method is wrong.

What this skill does

• Core EVM metrics: PV, EV, AC, CPI, SPI, CV, SV
• Forecasts: EAC, VAC, TCPI with plain English interpretation
• Progress summary: by activity count, by duration (weighted), by physical %
• Work package breakdown: completion, critical activities, remaining duration per WBS
• Resource utilisation: allocation, overallocation flags
• Flags missing cost data and pivots to schedule-only metrics when needed
• Presentable format: tables and narrative ready for a monthly report
