CONTINGENCY ANALYSIS
Contingency analysis is a method of
treating uncertainty that explores the effect on the
alternatives of change in the environment in which the
alternatives are to function. This is a "what-if" type of
analysis, with the what-ifs being external to the alternative, in
contrast to a sensitivity analysis, where the parameters of the
alternatives are varied. See also: A fortiori analysis.
