A Palisade Case Study
Pantektor AB, a Sweden‑based construction consultancy with more than 50 years’ experience, faced the challenge of accurately assessing and managing fire risk for new and existing buildings while meeting national codes and protecting occupant evacuation. To handle uncertainty in inputs and avoid misleading single‑point estimates, Pantektor used Palisade’s @RISK software to support its fire science, risk assessment and mitigation work.
Using Palisade’s @RISK (integrated into Excel) Pantektor runs Monte Carlo simulations and sensitivity analyses that model risk variables as probability distributions rather than fixed numbers. This approach lets Pantektor identify the highest‑impact factors, recommend cost‑effective measures (e.g., alarms, sprinklers, structural fire ratings), and bring facilities up to regulatory standard—improving the accuracy of risk estimates and focusing investments where they have measurable effect.
