Project Forecast Details and Model Comparisons

Over the course of hours, a project design session can generate many project model variants. In turn, these project models can be simulated to forecast emergent cost, schedule and scope performance. The list of these project models is shown in Design Walk as a tradespace chart and table on the left.

On the right of the DesignWalk application is information about the model and simulation that has been selected and the left, and an area to show the changes in the project model, as compared to the model on which it was based.

The comparison feature is useful for double checking the expected model edits, and to review what changes lead to better or unexpected simulated outcomes.

Selected Forecast Details and Comparisons

The right side of the window provides a summary of selected forecast model, as well as features for comparing the changes across models.


The "Based on" information indicates another project model, or series of project models, on which this selected model and forecast are based.
