- Risk Management
Like many fields in their early stages, the software field has had its share of project disasters. Most post-mortems of these software project disasters have indicated that their problems would have been avoided or strongly reduced if there had been an explicit, early concern with identifying and resolving their high-risk elements.
Software Risk Management Process, as a part of the company’s Quality Management System, is developed to identify, address, and eliminate risk items before they become threats to successful software operation or major sources of software rework.
So, each project can |
1. |
Protect cost, schedule, and specifications |
2. |
Prevent surprises, management crisis |
3. |
Prevent problems from occurring or, if they do occur, from escalating |
4. |
Focus on building the right offering the first time |
