Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum,
Read Chapter 11 from the course textbook,Contemporary Project Management.
Review section 7.5: Establish Change Control from Chapter 7 in the course textbook,Contemporary Project Management.
Read
Exploring the Value of Risk Management for Projects: Improving Capability Through the Deployment of a Maturity Model.
This week, the business development manager for International Logistics Services (your project management case study) has returned from a meeting with Walmart. Walmart and Proctor & Gamble successfully pioneered the use of vendor managed inventory (VMI), which is cited in the article,
New Models for a Single-Manufacturer Multi-Retailer Supply Chain Under Vendor Managed Inventory Program. The VMI concept enables the vendor or manufacturer to decide on the timing and quantity of restocking store shelves up to a certain maximum using data from the retailer. During the meeting, Walmart suggested that International Logistics Services might implement a VMI on their behalf. This would mean that International Logistics Services would need to develop a system and a process to obtain the data from Walmart and assume responsibility to order product from the various vendors and ship to Walmart ensuring no stock-outs without exceeding the maximum. The business development manager suggests that this requirement be added to the scope of the Logistics Services Improvement project.
On the one hand, this is an opportunity that could enable Walmart and International Logistics Services to develop a new innovation that ultimately may reduce ongoing costs for Walmart, and enable International Logistics Services to earn additional revenue. On the other hand, this new requirement would add risk to the project, as there are several fundamental issues that need to be addressed. In addition, International Logistics Services would need to develop information technology and processes that would be integrated with Walmart on the outbound side and on the inbound side with Walmarts suppliers. A rough estimate indicates that the additional project investment would be $75,000. Finally, International Logistics Services has not yet secured Walmarts business, though the two companies have worked together in other countries and have a good relationship.
Tomorrow, the director of logistics services, the business development manager, and you will discuss the proposed change to the project scope. As the project manager, prepare for the meeting by evaluating the opportunities and threats to add new requirements this late in the planning stage.

The Texas Medical Center (TMC) is composed of forty-nine not-for-profit institutions that are
dedicated to the highest standards of patient care, research, and education. These
institutions include thirteen renowned hospitals and two specialty institutions, two medical
schools, four nursing schools, and schools of dentistry, public health, pharmacy, and
virtually all health-related careers. People come from all walks of life and from all over the
world to have access to the best healthcare anywhere. Member institutions specialize in
every imaginable aspect of healthcare, including care for children and cancer patients, heart
care, organ transplantation, terminal illness, mental health, and wellness and prevention.

Currently, 11 major construction projects are underway, including the Texas Childrens
Hospitals 407,000-square-foot Neurological Research Institute and 720,000-square-foot
Maternity Center, along with a 12-story, 27,000-square-foot concrete-frame addition to the
M. D. Anderson Cancer Center of the University of Texas Medical Center. Collectively, these
major projects will add facilities that will be staffed by up to 27,000 additional employees.
When complete, TMC will have 40 million square feet of occupied space. If you consider
downtown business space, by itself it forms the seventh-largest downtown business district
in the United States.

With hurricane season approaching,
TMC held a conference for over 100
contractors to review how to prepare for
a potential hurricane. Contractors must

are going to secure their construction
sites and keep materials from becoming
airborne missiles in the event of a
hurricane. Conference attendees were
given a handout describing TMCs
hurricane guidelines. These guidelines
call for storm preparations to be
completed 24 hours before tropical
storm winds are predicted to hit land.
Examples of storm preparations include
dismantling scaffolds and privacy
screens, securing giant cranes,
emptying and weighting down
dumpsters, photographing all buildings
and assets, and unblocking all streets for emergency access.

While project managers cannot prevent hurricanes, through careful risk planning, actions
can be taken to greatly mitigate the impact.

Rhonda Wendler, Texas Medical Center News

Imagine you are asked to plan for risks on two different projects. One is a major construction
project at TMC with hurricane season approaching. The other is planning a small fund-
raising event for charity. Would you handle the risks on these two projects the same way?
Would you invest the same level of time and energy into planning these two projects? The
answers are yes and no. Yes, you would approach the risks in the same way. But you would
not spend the same amount of time planning for risk on both projects. You would spend
considerably more time and money on risk management planning for the major construction
project that is vulnerable to a hurricane than for the small fund-raiser project. Just as in
other types of project planning, there is an approach to planning for risks that all projects
follow; however, the depth of planning depends greatly on the potential project risks and
consequences if some of these risks are not managed. In other words, a smart project
manager gladly spends $100 in risk planning to save $1,000 in expected consequences, but
does not gladly spend $1,000 to save $100.

The purpose of risk management is to reduce the overall project risk to a level that is
acceptable to the project sponsor and other key stakeholders. The methods that project
managers use in risk management start with identifying as many risks as possible. Once the
risks are identified, each risk is analyzed in terms of its likelihood of occurrence and impact
on project goals if it occurs. Using this analysis, the project team can concentrate their
attention on the most critical risks. Analysis always consists of a qualitative or judgmental
approach for all the identified risks and sometimes also includes a quantitative approach for
the critical risks. In the final risk management process, the project team decides how to
respond to each potential risk. Once all the risk management planning has initially been
accomplished, the response plans are incorporated into the overall project management

plan. Changes may need to be made to the schedule, budget, scope, or communication
plans to account for certain risks. These risk management planning processes are covered
in this chapter. Risk management also includes monitoring and controlling the risks
according to plan. These are covered, along with ongoing risk planning, in Chapter 14:
Determining Project Progress and Results.

Agile

Agile projects are similar to other projects in regard to developing early

risk planning, assessment, and response planning at a high level. However, more
detailed and timely risk management occurs in planning each subsequent iteration,
in daily stand-up meetings, and in retrospectives at the end of each iteration.

11-1 Plan Risk Management
Plan risk management (process of defining how to conduct risk management activities for
a project.) is the process of defining how to conduct risk management activities for a
project. A future event is considered a project risk if it threatens the successful
accomplishment of a project goal. Obviously, a project manager must first understand the
projects objectives to plan for project risks. A project manager develops this understanding
initially by realizing what project success in general is and then by understanding the
specific priorities of the most important project stakeholders, as discussed in Chapter 6.
Exhibit 11.1 summarizes current project success research results.

with a project. This includes meeting the project requirements while not going over the cost
and sche
