Applying ranged estimates to work allows the predictive scheduling engine to shed light on the uncertainty in your plans before it becomes a problem. Your schedule is always up to date because LiquidPlanner runs sophisticated Monte Carlo simulations on the whole portfolio whenever priorities, assignments and estimates change – accurately forecasting when work will be done.
