Scenario Planning
Definitive Pro and Scenario Planning
In situations where portfolio investment decisions are sensitive to uncertainty and changing conditions, Definitive Pro provides the capability to set and test scenarios.
Definitive Pro supports the following planning scenarios:
- Criteria weighting factors
- Discount factors (by year)
- Cost forecast (set % increases/decreases by year)
- Optimization constraints and dependencies
The creation and use of these scenarios are independent of each other, providing twenty-four different combinations of scenarios that can set and tested. Finally, for ease of use, Definitive Pro provides a “Super Scenario” capability to select a scenario of scenarios in each of the four areas described. Rather than set and run the scenarios individually, they can be organized into super scenarios so that a set of them can be run together. Scenario testing allows the results of the scenarios to be compared side-by-side to help our customers make decisions with foresight into what the future could look like.
