What are the chances of getting a project done on its scheduled completion date and budget? Get real with Monte Carlo probabilistic risk analysis.

Cost and Schedule Risk Assessment (CSRA), when completed at key times in the project lifecycle can improve the potential for project success and predictability by helping stakeholders identify and quantify the risks and opportunities. By applying Monte Carlo analysis to the project cost and schedule, project managers can provide investment decision makers with a realistic and quantified range of uncertainty around the budget estimates and completion dates. This can also provide the project team with a holistic view of the project’s risk profile for effective risk mitigation.

This presentation introduces probabilistic risk analysis, shares techniques that can be used in any project, in any industry, with real-life examples.
