ABOUT THE EVENT:
Decision Analysis (DA) embraces System Engineering and has many similarities.  We will discuss what is decision analysis and look at the similarities and the differences with system engineering.  Chevron’s $54 Billion Gorgon LNG project will be used as an example.   We will discuss the elements of Decision Quality, to include framing the opportunity and decision criteria.   Using only Excel, we will demonstrate decision analysis using a modeling method called SIPmath that enables making decision considering uncertainty using continuous variables.  Projects are frequently over cost (budget) and/or behind schedule.   We will look at how decision analysis can assist in better assessing cost and schedule using probabilistic analysis.  We will look at a live model and discuss how to represent mitigations of the cost and schedule.   We can also discuss the “Pugh Concept Selection” process and how it might be enhanced with Decision Analysis.
