The scope of study includes qualitative and quantitative analysis which helps in consolidating decision making under uncertainty. The emphasis has been given in finding the most critical risks which were quantified with the help of @RISK software and as per the tornedo chart the results are interpreted. This helps in identifying major project as a management input and which in turn identifies mitigation solutions to resolve riskoriented issues in steel plant projects.

4. INTRODUCTION
 The Steel industry is being faced by myriad challenges such as
volatility, shifting demand centers, complex supply chains,
productivity and cost efficiency.
 It incorporates different phases of steel plant projects such as
Development phase, Execution phase and Operation phase.
 The scope of study includes qualitative and quantitative
analysis which helps in consolidating decision making under
uncertainty.

14. WHY @RISK SOFTWARE
 Uses monte carlo simulation
 Shows many possible outcomes for a problem
under consideration
 It tracks many possible future scenarios,
 Its probability
 The risks associated with each different
scenarios.
 Allows the user to judge upon the risks which one
to take or which one to avoid
14

15. MONTE CARLO SIMULATION
A computerized mathematical technique
For quantitative analysis
For decision making
Generates all the possible outcomes
With their impact of risk

17. TORNADO CHART
 Shows the spread of every parameter.
 Gives the critical parameters carrying the high potential
of uncertainty.
 The tornado spread gives the critical parameter.

 Significant swings in the demand of steel
(Development phase)
 Decline in profit margin in the downstream
process(Development phase)
 Unforeseen ground conditions(Construction
Phase)
 Difficulty in financing project(Development
Phase)
 Delay in obtaining permission.(Development

23. CONCLUSION
 Qualitative and Quantitative have given the same
results and hence the methodology can be validated.
 The research methodology can be taken as a
reference for further research work in Steel Plant
project or in similar researches for other
infrastructure projects.
 Most of the risks that are identified and which have
to be mitigated are from development phase .These
risks are to be taken into considerations for future
steel plant projects
