The WTS Charlotte Metro Chapter is pleased to host our Lunch Program on Wednesday, June 7, 2017 featuring Jose Theiler, Senior Transportation Civil Value Engineer at HDR Engineering.

This presentation describes how Cost Risk Assessments can be used to validate project base cost estimates and schedules. The process entails identifying and quantifying possible project specific risk events that impact cost and schedule and response strategies geared to reducing the probability of these occurrence. The Montecarlo simulation model can be used in the financial and economic evaluations to provide a full spectrum of outcomes.
