Risk Management is essential for development and production programs. Risk issues that can be identified early in the program, which will potentially impact the program later, termed Known Unknowns and can be alleviated with good risk management. Risk Management is Project Management for Adults - Tim Lister.

Uncertainty is related to three aspects of the management of projects: The external world - the activities of the project itself. The naturally occurring work effort in the development of a software feature - even if we've built the feature before - is an irreducible uncertainty. One starting point is the value at risk.

Traditional methods of quantitative cost-benefit analysis, like Net Present Value (NPV) or Discounted Cash Flow (DCF), either ignore or cannot properly capture the needs of management for flexibility to adapt and revise later decisions based on the uncertainties found on all IT projects. 72, 2nd Quarter, 2008, pp. IT Risk Management.

The planned uncertainty not only needs to decrease over time passing, but this reduction diminishes any impacts of risk on the decision-making processes. Seems there is still some confusion (intentional or accidental) about the Cone of Uncertainty and its purpose and its use in software development.

But before going further, let's establish the definitions we need to understand and apply Root Cause Analysis needed to discover the corrective and preventive actions to increase the probability of project success - especially Software Project Success. What Are Problem Causes of Software Projects? All for the want of a nail.
