generate many ideas in a short period of time.

▪ Ideas are solicited in non- judgmental manner from all

▪ It is used to collect all the information about the

have a better understanding of the accuracy, reliability,
quality of the data.

6- Variance and Trend Analysis

▪ Variance analysis is a quantitative review of the


differences between what we thought would happen
versus what actually happened.

▪ While trend analysis is a quantitative review of what


happens over a period of time. In most cases, variance
and trends go hand in hand and are reported at the
same time for the same metrics

7- Reserve Analysis

▪ reserve analysis is the process of estimating the amount


of money that should be set aside to cover unexpected
costs. This can be done by looking at past projects and
estimating how much money was spent on unforeseen
expenses.

20
Example

▪ From the following information calculate the amount to


be transferred in contingency:

▪ Project Period 12 Months


▪ Risk of Contingency: 30%
▪ Cost of Project: $290,00

▪ Amount of Reserve to be Created = Cost of Project *


Risk of Contingency

Example
▪ This $87,000 to be transferred in the separate bank
account

▪ The monthly amount to be Transferred = Yearly Amount


Number of Months
