Abstract:
Large-scale engineering programs are tricky. If they are not cancelled altogether, they often suffer from significant cost overruns, schedule delays, and shortcomings in technical performance. One of the major root causes are risks, i.e. various uncertainties impacting the objectives of the program. In order to effectively manage those risks, organizations have to a) develop a structure to identify and describe engineering-related risks, b) prioritize their risks and c) implement effective risk management processes. This paper gives an overview of some current findings and focusses in particular on empirically validated best practices.
