Go for Gold! EVM + Risk Management + Early Warning System

by Eduard Pfister

June 27, 2013 | 62:35 | Views: 1,141 | PDUs: 1.00 | Rating: 4.25 / 5

Earned Value curve (Planned Value, Costs and Earned Value) helps you see at any time if a delay will cost more than what we have in the budget. This delay may be in non-critical tasks in the best or worst, be in the critical path (GANTT). These situations can be avoided by good management which includes risk assessment. Place the activities that have to be done if an unforeseen event happens. With this definition, one can use Monte Carlo methods to tell the probability of success and how much time and money it will finally cost. In addition one may add the estimation uncertainty for critical activities. What will be the impact on the estimate to complete the project? All this, should be done before starting the project. During the execution of the project simulations can be used constantly. Define an early warning system which indicates critical situations early enough to take actions.

PMXPO 2012 Going For Gold: Delivering Successfully Despite Uncertainty

by Penny Pullan

May 17, 2012 | 56:36 | Views: 10,384 | PDUs: 1.00 | Rating: 4.17 / 5

We live in an uncertain world of tricky projects and programs. For most of us, this means ambiguous requirements, disinterested stakeholders and even teams dispersed around the globe. In this complex and messy world, we're still expected to deliver. This means managing risks, both positive and negative. But too often, risk management in projects is a boring bolt-on, rather than a fundamental part of ensuring successful delivery, and is of little value. In this presentation, we'll look at how you can engage other people to identify, own and manage risks on your project or program.

Project HEADWAY: Managing the Upside of Risk

Sep 27, 2011 12:00 AM EDT (UTC-4)

PREMIUM webinar

Risk management has a bad name. “Risk”, like “politics", is a word weighted with negative baggage. When we hear the word, we view it as focussing on problems. Risk management on projects can become a doom-and-gloom exercise in finding all of the bad things that might go wrong, and coming up with plans of what to do about them.

How to Estimate and Use Management Reserve

by Mark Infanti

January 11, 2011 | 65:41 | Views: 1,462 | PDUs: 1.00 | Rating: 4.17 / 5

When using an Earned Value Management System (EVMS), Management Reserve (MR) is both expected and considered a best practice. But the lack of understanding of MR and its use extends from government agencies to contractors. MR is an integral part of an EVM System. MR should be part of the original project estimate, but how much should you plan and how do you use MR to manage your project. This presentation discusses how MR is established (risk based) and subsequently used to keep a program on track. It also covers the common issues/misunderstandings and how to deal with them.
