Amy is the project manager for her company. In her current project the organization has a very low tolerance for risk events that will affect the project schedule.Management has asked Amy to consider the affect of all the risks on the project schedule. What approach can Amy take to create a bias against risks that will affect the schedule of the project?

She can create an overall project rating scheme to reflect the bias towards risks that affect the project schedule.

She can have the project team pad their time estimates to alleviate delays in the project schedule.

She can shift risk-laden activities that affect the project schedule from the critical path as much as possible.

She can create an overall project rating scheme to reflect the bias towards risks that affect the project schedule.

She can filter all risks based on their affect on schedule versus other project objectives.

Joan is a project management consultant and she has been hired by a firm to help them identify risk events within the project. Joan would first like to examine the project documents including the plans, assumptions lists, project files, and contracts. What key thing will help Joan to discover risks within the review of the project documents?

Lack of consistency between the plans and the project requirements and assumptions can be the indicators of risk in the project.

The project documents will help the project manager, or Joan, to identify what risk identification approach is best to pursue.

Plans that have loose definitions of terms and disconnected approaches will reveal risks.

Poorly written requirements will reveal inconsistencies in the project plans and documents.

You and your project team are just starting the risk identification activities for a project that is scheduled to last for 18 months. Your project team has already identified a long list of risks that need to be analyzed. How often should you and the project team do risk identification?

Identify risks is an iterative process.

Several times until the project moves into execution

It depends on how many risks are initially identified.

Identify risks is an iterative process.

Walter is the project manager of a large construction project. He'll be working with several vendors on the project. Vendors will be providing materials and labor for several parts of the project. Some of the works in the project are very dangerous so Walter has implemented safety requirements for all of the vendors and his own project team. Stakeholders for the project have added new requirements, which have caused new risks in the project. A vendor has identified a new risk that could affect the project if it comes into fruition. Walter agrees with the vendor and has updated the risk register and created potential risk responses to mitigate the risk. What should Walter also update in this scenario considering the risk event?

Project contractual relationship with the vendor
