Determination of physical percent complete is rooted in performance measurement, the comparison of actual performance against an integrated baseline plan consisting of integrated cost, schedule, and technical goals. Earned Value Management (EVM) often anchors such a performance measurement system in DoD programs.

A product manager, who works for a large aircraft manufacturing organization in the United States, follows a hybrid model of development and, with his team, releases a new version of aircraft handling software every couple of weeks. In EVM terminology, baseline is further defined as the performance measurement baseline (PMB).

I've seen estimates abused by bad managers, so let's NOT estimate and that will fix the behavior of Bad Managers." While the human behaviors are real and observable, conjecturing that decisions can be made in the presence of uncertainty without estimating the outcome of those decisions, there is no principle to support that conjecture.

Improvement in estimating accuracy by a certain percentage or dollar value. Therefore, it will be necessary to benchmark the metrics use as part of performance measurement.
