Why Choose this Training Course?
This Decision Analysis for Operation & Maintenance Professionals training course examines techniques for decision analysis with emphasis on prioritization and the decision making process to be carried out by operation & maintenance professionals. Decision-making is the most central human activity, intrinsic in our biology and done both consciously and unconsciously. We need it to survive. Taking a decision is not just a question of selecting the best alternative. Often one needs to prioritise all the alternatives for resource allocation among a portfolio of option, or to examine the effect of changes introduced to initial judgments. We need to set priorities on these solutions according to their effectiveness by considering their benefits, costs, risks, and opportunities, and the resources they need.
