INTRODUCTION – RE-FOCUS ON VALUE AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Many of our client and customer companies are re-focusing their efforts on value and risk management, especially in the resource industry given the current downturn – we aremanagement, especially in the resource industry given the current downturn we are now witnessing the impact in our industry and our need to also re-focus.
Rio’s new head honcho Sam Walsh has promised an “unrelenting focus on pursuing value for g gshareholders”, including tightening up project protocols and overall capital expenditure.
We need to treat the company’s money like it’s our money. We need to run the business as if we own it,” Walsh said. Feb 2013
Crocodile CEO says a focus on value over ounces will boost prospects in 2014The Gold Report | November 24, 2013
Mark Cutifani, Chief Executive of Anglo American, said (Sept 2013): “Despite our belief that Pebble (copper project in Alaska) is a deposit of rare magnitude and quality, we have taken the decision to withdraw f ll i th h t f A l A i ’ t i i li f l d t d j t ti Ofollowing a thorough assessment of Anglo American’s extensive pipeline of long-dated project options. Our focus has been to prioritise capital to projects with the highest value and lowest risks within our portfolio, and reduce the capital required to sustain such projects during the pre-approval phases of development as part of a more effective, value-driven capital allocation model.
Take away and theme for this presentation:Risk and value management are interrelated functions and processes with value management considering the best way to deliver the “need or benefit” and risk management being used to assist in choosing the best solution

INTRODUCTION – RE-FOCUS ON VALUE AND RISK MANAGEMENT Investors are seeking the best risk weighted investment return for their capital with a risk profile that is congruent with their tolerable risk level. The challenge is to develop reliable execution phase capital & schedule risk profiles during the feasibility study phase andexecution phase capital & schedule risk profiles during the feasibility study phase and execute within these profiles.

WHAT DOES RESEARCH TELL US ABOUT PROJECT FAILURES?The Collaboratory for Research on Global Projects at Stanford has also l k d t j t f il f l l j t d b d flooked at project failures for large complex projects and observed a range of common failure factors and suggested techniques to alleviate these factors
Success or Failure Factor Management techniquesSuccess or Failure Factor Management techniques
Insufficient advance planning and analysis
• Robust decision making process – a process that engages diverse stakeholders and fosters alignment around value management, project execution and risk managementmanagement, project execution and risk management• Integrated risk analysis of cost, schedule and economics to quantify risks and evaluate execution alternatives and sensitivity profiles
Q tifi ti f i k d d ll ti f i k t d l
Failure to complete advanced detail design engineering
• Quantification of risk and agreed allocation of risk to develop optimal contract structures• Build in downstream flexibility through decision points – use value of information concepts and assess option value
Winner’s curse – ie win the project at too low a price
Failure to build a unified• Recognise the increased co-ordination requirements and risk with fast-tracked projects• Use organisational simulation to understand an organisation’s ability to execute the project
Failure to build a unified owner/contractor team
Organisational bottlenecksability to execute the project• Establish governance processes that: create a shared project team identity, use goal alignment and trust building exercises, align interests around shared risks and incentives, use “fair processes” for decisions use agreed trusted third parties as dispute mediators and

decisions, use agreed trusted third parties as dispute mediators and deploy stakeholder identification and influence strategies.
WHAT DOES RESEARCH TELL US ABOUT PROJECT FAILURES? A 2007 paper by Lawrence and Scanlan, Aerospace Research Centre, Bristol b d j i i f il 10 i d l d d th tbased on major engineering failures over a 10 year period, concluded that the current technology for managing complex projects is inadequate.
Failures typically involved the 8 Deadly Factors:yp y y
• Poor initial planning
• Lack of clear objectives and deliverables
• Lack of understanding of dependencies
• Inadequate resource allocation
• Poor risk analysis
• Poor change management
• Lack of “buy-in” from stakeholders
• Poor understanding of priorities

issues.
WHAT DOES RESEARCH TELL US ABOUT PROJECT FAILURES? Complexity drives complex dependencies and interactions with iterative and f db k l d l i t l h ’t ll h dfeedback loops – our resource and planning tools haven’t really changed for 50 years and are not adequate for this level of complexity
Example of anExample of an aerospace planning network.
PERT and CPM techniques are not adequate and the result is that schedules will typically be optimistic
Organisational constraints notconstraints not assessed or ignored
Cultural factors often not included and assessed

RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESSThe risk treatment phase involves the consideration of treatment options and a decision analysis process to select the preferred treatment strategy or option. y p p gy p
Note:
When checking if the risk is acceptable after the implementation of your risk treatment option –check for any “secondary risks”
The risk treatment creates change and change creates risk
This analysis will highlight the need for “fall back plans”

optimal decisions to protect and realise value.
VALUE MANAGEMENT PROCESS - definedAustralian, US and European codes exist for Value Management and VM is an “inclusive phrase” that embraces Value Analysis and Value Engineering – the US p y g gDefense Dept has adopted the same stance.
• Value Management is “A structured and analytical process which follows a prescribed work plan to
hi b t l h i t b tachieve best value or, where appropriate, best value for money” [AS 4183:2007].
For a project this essentially means
• “A structured and analytical process which follows• A structured and analytical process which follows a prescribed work plan to achieve best NPV within constraints and givens agreed between the project g g p jstakeholders”.
© Hatch Associates Limited, 2006 21
VALUE MANAGEMENT PROCESS – what is value?The concept of value is not new and the Australian Code provides a framework for assessing value. The American code takes more of a VE approach using g pp gfunction analysis.
The value of an item must not be based on its price but rather on the utility whichThe value of an item must not be based on its price but rather on the utility which it yields[Bernoulli D. (1738)]
An attribute of an entity determined by the entity’s perceived usefulness, benefits, and importance [AS4183:2007].
Conventional VA / VE asks:• What does it do?• What does it cost?• What does it cost?• What is it worth? – (the lowest cost to provide the function)
Value is sometimes presented by the relationship:Value is sometimes presented by the relationship:Value = Function / cost
This of course has some issues eg does
© Hatch Associates Limited, 2006 22
This of course has some issues eg does Cost = Function / Value?
VALUE MANAGEMENT PROCESS – can be applied to anything by considering the value factorsThe value factor framework can be applied to anything – products, services, projects, a procedure, a job description etc. It helps confirm our objectives, the benefits we j jwant and what is important to us. It aligns stakeholders to address the multiple perceptions of the value factors.

DECISION MAKING - QUALITATIVEQualitative decision analysis techniques are usually the starting point and a popular method is Kepner Tregoe. The value factors are classified as MUSTS p p p gand WANTS and the WANTS are weighted for scoring.

DECISION MAKING - QUALITATIVEQualitative decision analysis involves reviewing the risk profile for the preferred alternative – if it is not tolerable then we need to assess the cost or impact of the treatment actions required to achieve a tolerable risk profile – then ask is it still the preferred alternative?
© Hatch Associates Limited, 2006 38
DECISION MAKING - QUALITATIVEThe risk profile/s of the preferred option/s needs to be checked as part of the final decision.
For our preferred option – check the following:For our preferred option check the following:• What is the risk profile – ie what are the key risks?• Are we close to any MUST limits?
H d i d t di d fid i th i f ti• How good is our understanding and or confidence in the information for this option – where might this be invalid and what are the consequences?
• If this alternative is chosen what could go wrong that hasn’t been identified in the risk profile
• Are the risks and our control measures acceptable/tolerable for this option
• Would any further controls change our decision?

DECISION MAKING - QUANTITATIVE
Quantitative analysis is particularly useful in FEL2 where it is necessary to l t th “ f d” ti f FEL3 Thi t i ll i l i k b dselect the “go-forward” option for FEL3. This typically involves risk-based
decision making techniques using the risk profiles of the options.
