Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled (BCWS) is used in Earned Value Analysis

For a fuller understanding, this Wiki entry should be read in conjunction with ACWP and BCWP.

BCWS is the cumulative cost of doing work as defined in the Base programme.

The total value of the activities are added up for each period and plotted cumulatively to give a profile on a graph.
