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
The newest version of the free software MCM Alchimia has been designed to facilitate the estimation of measurement uncertainty and calibrations using the Monte Carlo method in accordance with JCGM 101. In this update, a comprehensive GUM framework uncertainty budget has been introduced, and similar to the previous version, it maintains support for correlated quantities and regression curves. Additionally, it boasts a speed enhancement that rivals well-known calculation and statistics programs. Users can perform simulations using direct, inverse, and total least squares methods, offering versatility in analysis. Furthermore, there is a custom application language available through an external module, allowing for tailored functionality. The output report provides a thorough statistical analysis of the simulations conducted, ensuring users have detailed insights into their results. This release significantly enhances the usability and efficiency of the application for professionals in the field.
