| Summary: | Risk management is perhaps the hottest topic of discussion for professionals within the design and construction industry who care about the fate of their endeavors, whatever they may be. Increasingly, professionals are engaged in risk management even before the project is assigned to them. It is difficult to imagine project management without formal or informal risk management. While this book addresses risk in the context of transportation projects, the process and tools presented in it are applicable to any kind of project. The process presented in this book is one of the most versatile methods of estimating and risk assessment and analysis. It can be applied to projects of any size; any stage of development; and any level of complexity. It is just a matter of understanding the project and matching the level of effort to the objective. The primary audience for this book is those involved in the development and delivery of projects and programs. This includes project and program managers, designers, engineers, architects, cost estimators, schedulers, and risk managers, as well as those seated within upper management who have an interest in developing fluency with risk management. |
