Most cost models assume certainty—but large-scale projects are anything but predictable. Traditional approaches often ignore uncertainty, leaving decision-makers blindsided by overruns, delays, and cascading risks. Without a way to capture the complex, uncertain nature of real-world project costs, even the most detailed budgets can quickly fall apart.
Join Dimitris Leimonis, Founder and Managing Director at Financial Arena, for this webinar where you'll learn how to build advanced cost models that account for uncertainty, integrate risk registers, and communicate results with clarity—using the power of @RISK.
In this webinar, you'll gain:
A framework for building robust cost models that reflect real-world variability
Techniques for integrating risk registers into your cost analysis process
Best practices for modeling correlations between cost elements
Guidance on producing meaningful reports that resonate with key stakeholders
Hands-on insights into applying @RISK for better decision-making
