Risk Management SOS ch 6
Risks • Bad things that might happen • two aspects • uncertainty - probability of happening • loss - cost if it happens
Risk Exposure • Expected value of the risk event • Product of risk probability and cost
2 games – flip 2 coins • Game A: • 2 heads pays $10 • 1 head costs $2 • 0 heads costs $4 • Game B: • Pay $2 to play • 2 heads pay $10 • No other combination pays • Which is better?
Risk Decision Tree • The top level branch splits on alternatives • Lower levels split on possible events
TTYP1 • Assume that each additional review will cost an extra $6K but will cut in half the current probability of an error. • Assume that an error in the delivered product would cost Company XYZ $800K. • If the initial probability of an error is 5%, how many reviews should the company do? What if the initial probability of an error is 10% • Draw the risk decision tree and calculate the risk exposure for each choice
TTYP2 – Deal/No Deal • If you are the contestant and you have two boxes left: $1,000,000 and $10,000, should you deal if the deal amount is $500,000?
Risk Categories • Project risks • budget, schedule, personnel, requirements • Technical risks • design, implementation, interface, testing problems • Business risks • product viability
Proactive • How do we mitigate those risks? • Planning which task to do first • Using quality assurance tasks • Monitoring progress • How does this relate to life-cycle model?
