Tecolote Research, Inc, would like to recognize Nicholas DeTore for being awarded 2017 ICEAA 'Implementation & Operations' Best Paper for his paper 'Beyond RIFT: Improved Metrics to Manage Cost and Schedule'.

“Risk-Informed Finish Threshold” (RIFT) presented an innovative solution to the problem inherent in schedules that risk analysis results (time) cannot be allocated the same way as in cost models (dollars). Developing RIFT validation methods inspired an exploration into analyzing simulation data more meticulously. Methods described here provide unique insight into cost and schedule uncertainty results while introducing powerful new techniques to improve a project’s potential to complete on time, on budget.
