Deltek MPM has been one of the most successful applications for Earned Value Management. There are many MPM implementations across many industries. MPM has been marketed and implemented as a single-program, standalone system with little configuration or tailoring.
Many of our clients have a goal of making their EVMS system more robust, and are looking for a cost engine that is more flexible, has “state of the art” technology, and can be integrated with their scheduling and financial tools.
Deltek Cobra is a more flexible cost engine suitable for multi-program or Enterprise EVMS implementations. It has many configuration options that you will want to understand and set, and you will need to determine how best to integrate it with your scheduling and financial tools.
Pinnacle is experienced with implementing both MPM and Cobra in many different environments from the largest DCMA approved enterprise system to smaller departmental solutions. We have implemented these tools in combination with different scheduling engines such as Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, Deltek Open Plan and Artemis; and with ERP applications such as Deltek CostPoint, SAP, Oracle Financials, and others.
