Measuring Project Performance

Master Earned Value Management to analyze and improve projects.

Verification

A systematic check to confirm that a product, service, or result conforms to stated regulations, requirements, specifications, or other imposed conditions; distinct from validation, which confirms it meets user needs and intended use.

Key Points

  • Focuses on compliance with documented requirements, standards, and specifications.
  • Common techniques include inspections, reviews, walkthroughs, tests, and audits.
  • Performed throughout the project and at control points before deliverable acceptance.
  • Asks "Did we build it correctly?" whereas validation asks "Did we build the right thing?".

Example

In a construction project, the site inspector measures beam dimensions and checks material certificates to ensure they match the structural drawings and code requirements before approving the concrete pour.

PMP Example Question

Which activity best represents verification in a project?

  1. Conducting end-user beta testing to see if the solution solves their problems.
  2. Comparing system test results against the approved requirements specification.
  3. Running a market pilot to assess customer willingness to pay.
  4. Reviewing the business case to confirm the project aligns with strategy.

Correct Answer: B — Checking conformance to specified requirements

Explanation: Verification confirms that deliverables meet documented requirements and specifications, typically via tests, inspections, and reviews. Options A and C relate to validation and market fit; D concerns strategic alignment, not verification.
