INSIGHT

INFORMATION

Reversing the mind:From the future to the past

Past

What happened?

(reporting)

Present

What is happening now? (real times

updates)

Future

What will happen ? (extrapolation)

• Managing in the “fix it” : culture of engineers

Future

What is the best/worst that can happen?

(prediction, simulation)

Present

What is the next best action?

(recommendation)

Past

How and Why did it happen?

(Rex , experimental design)

• Managing in the proactive: culture of entrepreneurs

The value of Risk Management:

The life of PI

Copyright © ArcelorMittal 23/06/2017 21

Performance & Risk:

Management of a Performance Indicator

3 business processes to improve performance :

1. Process stabilization / reliability

2. Continuous Improvement / Capex Investment (Value plan)

3. Risk Management – through vulnerability22Copyright © ArcelorMittal 23/06/2017

performance bridge

concept:An heavy industry Ebitda is generated

by important drivers not in control of

Management as input prices,

exchange rate or partially selling

prices ….

…. The role of Management is to

create task of projects (Value Plan) on

top of “business as usual” (stability)

on the drivers they could have an

impact on …..

….. However Management manage

what they know ignoring of course

what they do not know …

…. Unplanned events (incidents)

happen, negatively impacting the

overall profitability …

…. Therefore Management has to do

RM extending their knowledge

beyond the actual reality to a

probabilistic view on what could

happen, in order to mitigate Ebitda

losses

Can you help?

Copyright © ArcelorMittal 23/06/2017 24

Lets help each other

Some common issues to discuss

Information• Optimal use of packages

– Managing interface

• Clarity of default settings

• Understanding of contingency risk

• Where do we/you need to improve?

• When should an exit strategy be

discussed– Go/no-go

• Your lessons learnt– Not only the good projects

• When is closed really closed?

Risks• Loss of Knowledge

• Loss of Experience

• Risk Dynamics fast and faster

• Variance – increasing volatility– Stress test the project to see viability

• Global Risk Adverseness– Ie willingness to take no risk

Copyright © ArcelorMittal 6/23/2017 25

What is the framework we

need to work together?
