Defining A Risk
 
 



The following is a list of generic sub categories of known and predictable project risks. Clicking on one of the links below will lead you to a page that will help you to identify your risks. Each identified type of risk and several of the questions are resused from Roger Pressman's book "Software Engineering: A Practitioner's Approach, 5th edition". If you answer "No" to any of these questions, then you have identified a potential project risk. If you are unsure, then there is some probability that the associated risk can affect your project. You can use our Condition Transition Consequence format to further refine the risk you identified and defined.
