Explain contingency with confidence
Translate uncertainty into funding recommendations leadership can review and approve.
Product
Jakten Risk
Purpose-built Monte Carlo risk analysis for construction estimates — structured registers, dependency modeling, contingency attribution, and executive reporting.
Why teams choose Jakten Risk
Benefits first — then how it fits your deployment.
Estimator-focused workflow
Structured around how preconstruction teams build, review, and defend estimates.
Customer-hosted control
Run on Windows infrastructure you manage — no requirement to upload sensitive estimate data to external SaaS.
Product capabilities
Every screen is designed to help estimators quantify uncertainty and explain results.
Walk into the funding review with a report, not a spreadsheet
Jakten Risk generates an executive funding recommendation with the base estimate, P-level funding targets, recommended contingency, and the drivers behind it — formatted for leadership review and authorization.
When the owner or your CFO asks why this number, the answer is on the page.
- Recommended funding level at your target confidence
- Contingency drivers with measured attribution
- Branded, board-ready output in one click
Workflow
From risk register to funded recommendation.
Start from your estimate
Bring in WBS-coded estimate lines and set risk potential per line — Low, Medium, or High — using your company's bands.
Model what could go wrong
Add risk events, map dependencies between packages, and let correlation reflect how costs really move together.
Run thousands of project outcomes
Monte Carlo simulation returns P50 / P75 / P90 funding levels and the contingency you should carry — with the reasons why.
Analytical risk modeling inside Platform
Jakten Risk is an analytical module for construction teams. It requires Jakten Platform — included with your Risk subscription.
- Model estimate versions and run analyses inside Platform projects
- Produce customer-ready risk reports with company standards applied
- Purchase named seats with annual per-seat licensing
Your data. Your environment.
Project data, estimates, and risk models live on Windows machines you control — never uploaded to someone else's cloud.
Built for construction
Made for estimators and preconstruction teams on capital projects, EPC, industrial, and infrastructure work.
Defensible results
Structured risk registers, Monte Carlo simulation, and executive reporting you can stand behind in funding reviews.
Deployment topology
Single-user profile
One person on one Windows PC. Platform, Risk, and company data run on that machine.
Multi-user office profile
Two or more people on separate PCs share one office server with desktop clients on each workstation.
Team deployments: purchasing five Risk seats means five named users on one shared company deployment — not five separate activations on isolated PCs.
