Risks in total investment costs. Bases for the management of constructive investments

Abstract

Risk analysis considers a set of tools associated in a correlated way for each phase of its management that help the systematization of complex processes developed under uncertainties. Thus, it is feasible to use it in problems where uncertainties are present, so that its application in the total investment costs can help to estimate the contingencies in the constructive investments. From this perspective, a group of concepts associated with risk management are analyzed by means of statistical processors and social networks, which contribute to determine how this can be contextualized to the analysis of total investment costs through the determination of a set of phases and their corresponding activities. The result has made it possible to determine the phases of the process, its stages and the possible techniques and tools to be used when faced with the need to foresee actions to diminish the effect of unforeseen events on the total investment cost that will help in the construction of methodological instruments that facilitate the management of these unforeseen events, which constitute risks in any constructive investment.
