Primavera Tip: Run a Quick Pertmaster Risk Analysis
Conducting a detailed and thorough schedule or cost risk analysis can be
a data intensive and time consuming effort. Proper conduct of the
assessment process requires input from multiple responsible project team
members. Though this process is necessary to provide a credible
analysis there is one way to get a quick initial thumbnail sketch for
any given project plan.
From the Pertmaster menu, select Risk, Duration Quick Risk, then specify
whether you want to include “All tasks in the plan”, “All filtered
tasks, or “Selected tasks only”; then specify a Distribution function
and standard percentages for the Minimum, Likely and Maximum durations.
Click OK and you’re all set to run the risk analysis. Repeat the same
steps for resource costs.
