Write a 750- to 1,050-word paper in which you select one scenario from the University of Phoenix Material: Risk Identification Scenarios. Describe how risk management can mitigate the risk in the scenario. How would you document the risk?
A construction company has been awarded the contract to build a pipeline in Alaska. The project timeline is of the highest priority because work can only be completed during summer months due to adverse weather conditions. One of the suppliers of a key component has longer lead time than is required to complete the pipeline, but may be able to deliver if the construction company will pay fees to expedite. There are other suppliers, but these suppliers are not on the construction company’s approved suppler list and it would take time to get them approved. There is a huge penalty in the contract if the project is not completed on time.
Risk event Short timeline Budget increase Penalty for contract extension Increases in budget for labor and added cost for expediting material Resources have a long lead time
