Project Tracking
• Successful Project – On Time – Within Budget, and – To the Required Level of Quality
(Satisfaction of Design Requirements)
• Project Risk – Definition: “A risk is
something that may happen and if it does, will have a positive or negative impact on the project” --- Black Swan?
– A risk must also have a probability something above 0%. It must be a chance to happen or it is not a risk.
– If it has a probability of 100% - in other words it will happen - it is an issue (not a risk).
