What you'll learn
Objective: Understanding the fundamentals of quantitative risk analysis (QRA) and how to apply these principles within Safran Risk.
Content:
- Introduction to quantitative risk analysis (QRA).
- Working with Safran Risk’s file structure, database, and user interface.
- How to import, and assure, P6 files within Safran Risks
- “Good” and “bad” models: understanding the role & value of the Schedule Warnings tab.
- Customising views using layouts.
- Building filters and how to apply them to a schedule.
- Adding statistics to a schedule and customising Gantt charts.
- Navigating the Project Risk tab.
- Risk types within Safran – ‘Standard Risk” and “Estimating Uncertainty”.
- Modelling risk impacts independently vs dependently.
- Mapping uncertainties and risks to a schedule & exploring the Risk Mapping tab’s “real-time analyzer” capabilities.
- Series vs parallel risks.
- Building or importing a cost breakdown structure (CBS) using Safran’s Cost module.
- How to model fixed vs variable costs, and the linking of costs to activities from a work breakdown structure (WBS).
- Analyze tab settings: risk selector, simulation settings, focus activities/costs, and the report generator module.
- Interpreting the Distribution Graph results: histograms, S-Curves, percentiles & other statistics, target values, and contingency curtains.
- Tornado charts: understanding differences between Drivers and Sensitivity Analysis.
- Scenario analysis & using Distribution Comparison graphs.
- Brief overview of Global Risks, Risk Calendars, Correlation, Scatter Plots, JCLs, PCFs, and the Critical Path Map tabs.
Prequisites
Familiarity with risk management techniques, and the fundamentals of Monte Carlo simulation. No advanced preparation required.
Attendees will require their own computer, with a trial/full version of Safran Risk installed. Reliable internet connection and ideally two monitors (one to visualise the presentation and one for the models to follow along the exercise).
