• Risks & Mitigations
– Scope Creep - Incorporate Checkpoints & Milestone,
Functionality Vs Aesthetics, No changes after Functional
Requirements
– Human Resources - Hire only experienced resources with both
prior Domain and Technical experience
– Resource Back Up - Take services of another Consulting Firm
– Mythical Man Month - Resource Leveling and Loading
• Room for Accommodating Scope Changes
– Minor alterations to existing requirements are feasible but no big
changes can be accommodated e.g. adding/changing few fields
vs adding a new page.
