| Risk management is continual in program management. It is important in the early stages, even when approval to authorize a program has not yet been obtained. Assume you are the sponsor of a possible new program in which all asphalt on your nation's highway system would be totally replaced with a new product that would never require any maintenance. However, obviously there are going to be risks with such a new product to be developed, and you need to identify some of them to obtain approval to proceed. Therefore, a key question to be able to answer when you request approval to proceed is: | |
| a. | What are the assumptions that are part of your analysis? |
| b. | How much do we need to set aside for contingency in our budget should the risks occur? |
| c. | How will these risks affect the ultimate sustainability of the product? |
| d. | What is the probability of success for this program? |
