Description

BidVariance is a web-based Monte Carlo estimation tool designed for consultants, agencies, engineering teams, and specialized contractors engaged in fixed-price projects. Users can create detailed task-oriented models by inputting optimistic, probable, and pessimistic estimates for both duration and costs, establishing connections between tasks, and incorporating probabilistic risks into their plans. The software's simulation engine performs thousands of outcome evaluations, providing insights on cost and scheduling variations, including P50, P80, and P90 results, as well as probabilities related to target margins, potential losses, and confidence in meeting deadlines, alongside the underlying assumptions that contribute to these variations. Additionally, users are able to explore alternative scenarios through Business and Consultant licenses, calculate quotes based on confidence levels, export their project information, and generate printable reports for decision-making. Project models are stored locally in the browser, but users must verify their online license to access the full suite of features. While free standalone bid calculators can be used without creating an account, the comprehensive multi-task simulation application requires a one-time license purchase for access. This combination of features makes BidVariance a versatile tool for effective project planning and risk assessment.

Description

RiskAMP is a comprehensive Monte Carlo simulation engine designed specifically for Microsoft Excel®, allowing for seamless integration with the software's interface and functions. The RiskAMP Add-in provides an extensive toolkit for incorporating risk analysis into spreadsheet models, streamlining the process while remaining more affordable than many competing options. Featuring a user-friendly integrated ribbon toolbar and support for VBA scripting, it also automatically generates charts and graphs. With the release of RiskAMP 6, new features have been added, including the PERT distribution for project and cost modeling, over 40 random distributions—including those that are correlated and multivariate—and automatic generation of histogram and correlation charts. The tool accommodates Latin Hypercube sampling, Las Vegas simulation algorithms, and distribution fitting, while also offering native compatibility with Windows on ARM architecture. RiskAMP is suitable for use with Excel versions ranging from 2013 to 365, whether in 32-bit or 64-bit formats, and users can also access a web-based risk platform known as RiskAMP Web. This versatility ensures that a wide range of users can benefit from enhanced risk analysis capabilities in their Excel applications.
