  • The use of quantitative risk analysis (QRA) and Monte Carlo simulations for cost forecasting.
  • How to apply earned value management to evaluate performance against budget baselines.
  • The role of cost governance frameworks in enhancing accountability and compliance.
  • Methods for managing financial risks in multi-phase and cross-sector power infrastructure.
Who Should Attend

This course is designed for project managers, cost engineers, financial analysts, power sector planners, risk officers, auditors, and procurement specialists engaged in the development and management of power infrastructure projects. It is also ideal for professionals from public utilities, energy ministries, independent power producers (IPPs), EPC firms, and development finance institutions who oversee budgeting, cost control, and financial risk management processes. It is equally valuable for executives and decision-makers involved in project appraisal, funding allocation, and performance evaluation.
