Ekonominių procesų optimizavimas plačiąja prasme nėra vien tik matematinių metodų taikymas sprendimo modeliams su ribojimais, jis apima projektavimo modelius ir ribojančių sąlygų apibrėžimą. Svarbu apibūdinti visus modelio komponentus ir nurodyti jų tarpusavio priklausomybę. Kiekvieno komponento padėtis yra nustatyta ir jis gali būti įtrauktas į panašiai funkcionuojančią grupę. Pateiktu modeliu demonstruojami procedūrinės veiklos elementai. Procedūrinė veikla apima pačią kontroę ir kontroliuojamus procesus, įskaitant procedūrų sąlygas. Procedūrų sąlygos—tai parametrai, apibūdinantys priklausomybę tarp kontrolės ir kontroliuojamų procesų Kontrolės procesas reiškia procesą, priklausantį tik nuo sprendimų priėmimo. Sprendimų priėmimas reiškia tam tikros vertės pasirinkimą kontrolės procese. Kontroliuojamas procesas priklauso nuo sprendimų priėmimo ir yra pavaldus kontrolės procesui ir procedūrų sąlygoms. Valdymas vyksta dviem lygiais. Pirmuoju lygiu pasirenkami tam tikri procesai, kuriais papildomas modelis. Antruoju lygiu sprendimų priėmimas yra realizuojamas kontrolės procesais modelio viduje.

Definition Of

Macquarie Dictionary define ‘Risk’ as the chance of an adverse event depending on the circumstances. In the field of engineering, the risk is often described as a specific unwanted event and including the consequences or loss. Usually residual risk from civil engineering project would lead to serious effects. The control of residual risk is an important subject in modern civil engineering management research. In this paper, a residual risk controlling methods will be present. Firstly, the definition and other mentioned concepts will be introduced. It includes the definition of residual risk and other concepts of risk that are often confused. Next, basic ways of dealing risk will be mentioned.

Business Game

The business game BAUMARKT, which is based on many years of experience in management education, has been applied successfully in the teaching of civil engineering and civil engineering management for several years. The participants acquire projects, calculate with market orientation and develop strategies as a team in order to reach the defined goals. In the course of the game decisions have to be made, that are related to capital lockup, employees policy, the closing of insurance contracts and the profit use, while the consequences for the business have to be observed. The business game supports the development of the ability to recognise economic interrelations, to think dynamically and to plan and manage work in a team.
