In these days, Cost and Scheduling was managed effectively because of introduction of EVMS to construction project. However the EVMS is appropriate methods to advanced country, so it is difficult to apply into domestic construction project. in this paper weighted value n, m was used of compositive index(CI) to forecast Estimate At Completion (EAC) using statistical analysis in credible interval the objective of this paper is to verify compositive index(CI) and to forecast Estimate At Completion (EAC).

The EAC(Estimate at Completion) among existing methods, which estimate cost and time effectively, help managers anticipate changeable several results at the point of $15{\sim}30%$ in the project progress. However, this method may cause such some problems as not to consider the periodically changing circumstances caused by construction risks or uncertainties which can affect the cost and time in the project, and to regard collected and accumulated data only as a single value when predicting the results on the progress. Accordingly, it is very difficult to accept the even small range of variability based on the anticipation of EAC. Consequently, the study focuses on the possibility methodology to anticipate time and cost accurately on the way to utilize EVMS(Earned Value Management System), and also suggest the way to perform the right estimation of EAC as considering various risks and uncertainties in construction projects.

Using EVMS can probably cause lots of confusion under the different systems and different circumstances of the construction industry between Korea and The United States, because The United States has wide experience in applying to EVMS during several decades but Korea has not. Therefore this research deals with the problem about Performance Indices in forecasting EAC(Estimate at Completion) among the problems of using EVMS. A target index of testing in this research is the Performance Indices used in the research at home and abroad in the past and those is applied to APT projects within the country with statistical method. Through this method, we can catch the tendency and the properties of the Performance Indices for applying to Korea.

Earned Value Management System(EVMS) has been institutionalized as an advanced management technique of construction project lately. And its research has been in the active progress in order to utilize the earned value concept as a project management tool for construction project ordered by both government and private sector. However it is necessary to test and prove the EVMS's adaptability to our construction environment by EVMS's several of operations before its introduction. Project forecasting phase of EVMS is the Estimate at Completion by utilizing earned value data. So, the purpose of this study is to propose EAC evaluation method for evaluation the accuracy of the EAC and encouraging cost realism, and to test for proving the validity of the evaluation methods through hypothesis testing.

The EVMS(Earned Value Management System) comes from C/SCSC which was first released by the United States Department of Defense in December 1967, and preyed very powerful and efficient project management tool from a lot of practices. Although it is an excellent tool, we can not be succeed appling foreign system due to the differences of construction culture and law between the Korean and US construction industries. EAC(Estimate at Completion) is one of the most important functions in the EVMS. The purpose of this study is to propose the improved EAC method according to the performance indices better than old that and to prove from examples. In advance, the improved EAC method is to estimate more exactly costs and to promote efficiency in construction projects.

On 1 July, 2000, the Ministry of Construction and Transportation announced the Earned Value Management System(EVMS) will be applied in public sector soon. However the arguments over the EVMS applied to our unique construction environment still exist and create strong concerns and worries among some experts it would be another mistakes proposed by the government. We do know the EVMS comes from C/SCSC which was first released by the United States Department of Defense in December 1967, and proved very powerful and efficient project management tool from a lot of practices. Although it is an excellent tool, we can not ignore our many experienced failures appling foreign system due to the differences of construction culture and law between the Korean and US construction industries. The purpose of the EVMS's success in Korea, therefore, this paper tests and proves the EVMS's adaptability and credibility to our construction environment by EAC model, that is one of the most important functions in the EVMS, using very scare EV data of the Korean construction projects.
