Project Risk Analysis Software and Project Risk Management Software Forum

Please note that RiskyProject uses multiple cores for Monte Carlo simulations. Than more core are available than faster calculations are. The optimal number of cores is 8 and up.

Here is our article which describes the theory behind Bayesian analysis and Monte Carlo simulations:

When RiskyProject runs a simulation or exports an MSP file to the RiskyProject professional it creates a temp file *.xll, which is a subset of the MSP xml file. By default the temp file is saved in the folder in which the mpp file is saved. With Project Server, there isn't a file location to save th...

Mac users will need either a Windows partition or a Windows emulator to run the software. Here is a table of available VM or emulators.

These are the steps you will need to follow to enable virtual machines for Mac Users. You may want to check the UTM website or user forums to verify. Using UTM, Mac users can: • Install Windows (especially ARM on Apple Silicon) • Run many Windows applications • Avoid needing Boot Camp (which isn’t a...

To confirm if the uncertainty values have been applied, first apply the uncertaintioes using the dialog. 1. Select the task 2. Open the Set Low/High Duration dialog 3. Enter coefficients and choose a distribution 4. Click OK. https://www.intaver.com/images/RP_Forum_DurationCoeff.png The updated Low ...

The icons only function when a task is selected. You must first highlight an activity by clicking on its ID, then click the simulation results icon.

Yes. You can apply uncertainty to: Individual activities Groups of activities If applied to a summary task, the uncertainty will automatically apply to all subtasks beneath it. https://www.intaver.com/images/RP_Forum_LowHighDur.png Best Practices Use summary tasks for bulk adjustments when tasks sha...

Yes. Risky allows you to model uncertainty using: Uncertainty bands, Low/High Duration settings with statistical distributions, or Manually entering low and high durations and setting the statistical distribution using the Statistical Distribution for Duration field which can be added as a column to...

Here is one of the common question many our users are asking: If I apply uncertainty to a summary task, do all subtasks receive the same values and distributions? All subtasks inherit the same coefficient or real number values, and statistical distributions when applied at the summary level. Best Pr...

To see the calendars assigned to individual tasks, you need to add the Task Calendar column to your view.

In the latest version 8.0 of the software, these settings have been moved. You can now find the primary project and calendar configurations under File > Options > Calendar.

Analysis of the imported data shows that calendars are generally picked up correctly. However, if the Default Start Time in the global options differs from the source file, it can simulate the appearance of an incorrect calendar. Additionally, users should verify the settings in File > Options > Cal...

This is typically caused by a difference in Project Start Time settings rather than a failure to import calendars. Even a small difference (e.g., 6:00 AM vs. 8:00 AM) creates a shift across the entire schedule. To fix this, ensure the Project Start time in RiskyProject matches the exact start time d...

New RiskyProject version 8 allows forecasting of project and task performance using Bayesian analysis. This method uses the same input data as the traditional analysis described in Calculating and Reassessing Tasks Using Tracking Data: the percentage of task completion and the associated status date...
