| Ecarts quantifiés et qualifiés quantified and qualified deviations Explanation: "Ecarts quantifiés et qualifiés" = "quantified and qualified deviations" [from planned values in various costs, sales, revenues....] This is part of an accounting software. It's about analysing deviations (écarts) from planned costs and revenues, i.e. comparing actual figures to targets. First step is to quantify the deviations: to establish for example how much are costs lower/higher than planned. Next step is to qualify the deviations - find out how/why they happened. i.e. what/who is to blame or praise. Example: "Trois types écarts sur coût de production sont quantifiés, qualifiés et analysés. 2. Exemple de recherche d'une liste d'opération de production (OP). 2.1." [http://www.gedia.fr/audit/IMG/pdf/2._GaSapDemo_Captures_Ecra...] Similar situation - analysing risks instead of costs: Risk Assessment: We assess the project risks relevant to the stage the project is in. In the beginning we conduct a Risk Assessment workshop and analysis to assist the setting of financial contingencies and to develop risk reduction targets. Specific risks are quantified and qualified in terms of probability and cost/time consequences are determined. Strategies are developed to either mitigate or eliminate risks. A Risk Register, which remains a live document throughout the project life-cycle, is developed and kept up to date as the project progresses.
