Barbecana is pleased to announce their participation at the
Microsoft Project Conference 2012, March 19-22, 2012, Phoenix,
Arizona. Attendees will see a live demo of the Schedule Risk
Analysis Software, Full Monte, an add-In for Microsoft Project 2007
and Microsoft Project 2010. Users of Microsoft Project 2007 and
Microsoft Project 2010 can analyze the likely effects of
uncertainty on the timely completion of their projects with the
help of Full Monte™ now available for a free 30-day trial or
purchase at Barbecana.com.
Full Monte addresses cost and schedule risk analysis using Monte
Carlo simulation, providing a much more realistic assessment of
likely project outcomes.
“Instead of saying that the project will be finished on June 15,
Full Monte allows you to make statements such as ‘there is a 95
percent chance that the project will be completed between July 15
and August 31,’” explains Welsh, President, Barbecana Inc. “And
because of the way parallel paths interact, it is often the case
that the June 15 date is not even remotely achievable.”
Fast and easy to use, Full Monte’s features include support for
five families of probability distribution (normal, lognormal,
uniform, beta, and triangular), correlations between task
durations, and branching based upon dates or chance. Output
includes expected values, standard deviations, percentile points,
histograms, and S-curves of early and late dates, slack values, and
cost for each task and for the project as a whole. Data can be
migrated automatically from Risk+®.
Software is available at Barbecana.com for $795, or visit the
website to download a free 30-day trial.
