The model can be used for revenue, expense, profit / income scenarios. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;A limited amount of information is required to set the model up. You will then be asked to consider up to five potential variables that could impact the baseline forecast. For each variable identified, the model requires a description of the drivers for the potential variable, an assessment of the potential financial impact – upside, downside or both - of each variable and an assessment of your confidence about the baseline forecast against the variable identified. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;The model then consolidates your data inputs and values the overall forecast envelope and your confidence about the forecast and variables. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;The next part is up to you; because the model will not provide answers, but it will provide a basis for conversations and discussions that help you make informed choices about your plans or initiatives.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.informingchoices.com/ROAM/ROAM%20Guide.pdf"&gt;CLICK HERE&lt;/a&gt; to download the full guidance document.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.informingchoices.com/8.html"&gt;CLICK HERE&lt;/a&gt; to contact us for more information about &lt;strong&gt;ROAM&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3191879122290553271-4053058651167979730?l=riskopportunitymodel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3191879122290553271/posts/default/4053058651167979730'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3191879122290553271/posts/default/4053058651167979730'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://riskopportunitymodel.blogspot.com/2010/09/risk-opportunity-analysis-model.html' title='The Risk &amp; Opportunity Analysis Model'/><author><name>Steve Wells</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13951459892124904305</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LJaoalIx7r0/Sxzjf5jYFvI/AAAAAAAAASY/dyen1X4QoYU/S220/Steve+Pic+3.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LJaoalIx7r0/TSshFTGaZ0I/AAAAAAAAAeM/xrsdi7JjR2Q/s72-c/Roam01.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry></feed>
