Can be used for:
optimal financial planning
scenarios
regional comparisons
The forecasting system is built on individual forecasts for each project and
is based on past observed behaviour, given the project’s features (cost,
sector, type, etc.), the category of the contracting body and the territorial
context where it is located.
Specific reports are produced on FAS regional programmes but there is not
an application available to generic users yet.
