Using the chart from the post, showing the number of projects that went over their estimated effort, let's look closer at a process to sort out the conjectures made in the post about estimating. Information Technology Estimating Quality. This is another example of Bad Management and Doing Stupid Things on Purpose.

This quote demonstrates a lack of understanding of making decisions in the presence of uncertainty and the processes and events that create uncertainty. All project work has uncertainty. Uncertainty comes from the lack of precision and accuracy about the possible values of a measurement of a project attribute.

This mathematical technique involves running numerous simulations, or 'trials,' each time randomizing variables within defined probabilities to model different scenarios of a project's potential risks and uncertainties. This is particularly useful in a process that cannot easily be predicted due to the intervention of random variables.
