PROJECT RISK ANALYSIS
Εκδότης Gower Publishing , ISBN 9780566091865
Projects overspend and overrun. Business cases perform less well than expected. Managers tighten their grip and initiate more procedure.
But little changes and the scenario repeats, and it has done so for decades. Losing other peoples' money and goodwill is almost an innate characteristic of projects. This may be a norm but it need not be the natural state of affairs.
In Project Risk Analysis, Derek Salkeld shows how easily assimilated techniques developed out of formal risk analysis methods can be used to increase the chances of projects being delivered to the oft quoted objective of on time and to budget, to quality and to popular acceptance. These techniques need to be understood by managers so that they can foresee the benefits of directing their teams to carry them out, and so they can inform their clients about the potential consequences of the investments they wish to make and how the project team plan to assure these. The three parts of the book explain how you can: calculate the funding required for a simple, short project using risk based methods to generate answers that are more accurate than traditional estimating apply the techniques to inform an investment decision for a major project, taking into account whole of life costs, operations and revenues design and implement specific management controls that will assure the outcomes of the investment decisions.
