contingency analysis
Contingency analysis is a method of treating uncertainty that explores the effect on the alternatives of change in the environment in which the alternatives are to function. This is a "what-if" type of analysis, with the what-ifs being external to the alternative, in contrast to a sensitivity analysis, where the parameters of the alternatives are varied. See also: A fortiori analysis. (IIASA)
