What does a negative Schedule Variance (SV) indicate?

The project is exactly on schedule
The project is ahead of schedule
The project is behind schedule
The project is over budget

The correct answer is: The project is behind schedule

A negative schedule variance (SV) indicates that the project is behind schedule. This means that the actual progress of the project is lagging behind the planned schedule. This could be due to delays in completing certain tasks or unexpected obstacles that have caused the project to fall behind its timeline. Options A and B are incorrect because they suggest that the project is on or ahead of schedule, respectively. Option D is also incorrect because it refers to budget rather than schedule.
