Schedule Risk and Schedule Risk Analysis

Should risks be used only for those events which have a negative bearing on the outcome of the project

Posted Sat, 2017-04-22 14:18 by A V

Hi,

       According to many risks can either have a negative outcome or a positive outcome. So if a risk has a positive outcome why is it considered as a risk and not as an opportunity? I realize that positive thinking says that look at all the risks as opportunities. But doing to defeats the following two purpose

1) It is not objective

2) Does not clearly distinguish between risks and opportunities.

 

multiple activities affected by a single risk

Posted Fri, 2017-01-27 23:06 by Mark Higgins

Good evening,

I have been approached by a PM that I support who has asked a question of which i am unsure how to answer.

The question is about applying a single risk against multiple schedule activities

would the best approach be to breakdown the over arching risk into smaller multiple risks, and apply individual probability and 3 point estimate values on a task by task basis.

The risk is based around Human Resource availability

 

any assistance would be greatly received

 

Cheers

Whats the best monte carlo schedule analysis tool for microsoft project

Posted Thu, 2016-12-01 15:42 by David Jackson

Hello,

I've been tasked with finding a software that we can use to run monte carlo analysis on our project schedules. The majority of our project schedules are undertaken in Microsoft project (client preferences). In a previous role I used Pertmaster and would like to find a similar solution that could be linked to MSP.

We would like to undertake monte carlo schedule analysis on small to mid size porgrammes (say a maximum of a thousand activities). I've looked at a few solutions online but am concerned about:

Resource leveling in PRA

Posted Thu, 2016-09-22 10:14 by Alexandre Faulx-B...

Hello planners,

Where could I find some comprehensive documentation about the nudge and resource leveling process in Primavera Risk Analysis?

Having tried to level the same project in P6, MS Project, Spider and finally PRA, I find that PRA does not reschedule the project the same way as the 3 others.

Thank you

Some activities become open ended while importing xer file in Primavera Risk analysis

Posted Thu, 2016-09-01 07:06 by sanam negi

Hi every one,

 

I imported .xer file into primavera risk analysis, and while doing the schedule check I found out that there are some activities which became open-ended, whereas the activities are not open ended in primavera P6 "view log".

 

Please advise what could be the possible reason or how can i fix this.

 

 

Thanks

Negative Schedule Variance with positive cost variance

Posted Fri, 2016-05-06 11:10 by Shafeek K A

Hi,

I understand that having a negative schedule variance with a positive cost variance is a rare case scenario. Could you please cite me a practical situation where this could be possible ?

 

Thanks.

P6 EPPM 15.2 connection wizard PRA

Posted Tue, 2015-11-24 15:28 by Dennis Hanks

Trying to establish the connection from PRA 8.7.0076 to P6 EPPM 15.2 (localhost). No problem using the connection wizard, but unable to access the EPPM database, Getting the following error messages. The first is trivial - I think. P3eKiller Run-time error '9' Subscript out of range.  The second is a login error. I've checked the user exists and the pw should be good. The error is: Error code = 80041b5c Login Failure P3eIntegration;P3eJLink.1  Note: I'm using Apache 3.1.3 JRE 1.8.0_65, localhost and port 7001.
