Deltek Acumen Options (Mentor)

The Acumen Mentor is designed to provide you with advice; similar to what a real-life mentor would do. In many cases this provides a safety net to minimize inaccurate results because of unreliable information.

Use these fields to add checks to ensure that all users are working with the most reliable data.

Risk Schedule Quality

Use these settings to minimize unreliable results due to poor schedule quality.

When you click Run Risk Analysis on the S3 // Risk tab, before running the analysis, Acumen checks the ribbon threshold selected here and analyzes the schedule quality to see if reliable risk results can be achieved. If the score is below the threshold specified here, Acumen displays a warning message. At that stage, you can choose to view or ignore the issues.
