Nowadays, business and projects management mean to deal with uncertainty and volatility. To increase the chances of success it is essential the organizations to be able to improve their ability to proactively manage the uncertainty, that is, to manage their risks.
One of the main obstacles to the effective risks management is the difficulty in quantifying the risk estimates which enables the development of appropriate responses to different identified scenarios. To significantly improve the quality of these estimates, the use of sophisticated statistical models, simulation mechanisms and scenario building become obligatory.
