Who Should Attend
This 3 day introduction course is aimed at all new Pertmaster software users and prospective users looking to evaluate and benefit from the full capabilities of Pertmaster Software
Day 1 Overview:
Intended to provide a good understanding of the main risk analysis capabilities of Pertmaster software. This day will use many “hands-on” exercises for learning the basics of quantitative risk analysis including:
- Basic schedule and cost risk analysis theory
|
- Using three-point estimates
|
- An introduction to the Risk Register
|
- Running a quantitative risk analysis and understanding results: Bell-curves, S-curves, criticality, sensitivity and cruciality,P- schedules
|
- Integration with MS Project and/or Primavera
|
Day 2 Overview:
Extensive “hands-on” exercises cover further risk management topics such as:
- Advanced schedule and cost risk analysis theory
|
- Qualitative and quantitative risk assessment templating
|
- Correlation in theory and practice
|
- Risk mitigation – management cost/benefit analysis
|
- Management costs, liquidated damages, revenues, probabilistic cash flow
|
- Probabilistic and conditional branching
|
- An introduction to macros and extending Pertmaster
|
Day 3 Overview:
NEW lab workshop that uses case-study examples to cover the whole
risk analysis process:
- Use it to explore topics further, optionally on your own data.
|
- Practice techniques in your own time with trainer assistance.
|
- Gain valuable confidence that will help you apply the training to your work.
