The Cone of Uncertainty is a framing assumption used to model the needed reduction in some parameter of interest in domains ranging from software development to hurricane forecasting. Closed Loop Stochastic Adaptive control in the presence of Evolving Uncertainty. This extended post covers. All risk comes from uncertainty.

This is an immutable principle that impacts planning, execution, performance measures, decision making, risk, budgeting, and overall business and technical management of the project and the business funding the project no matter the domain, context, technology or any methods. This approach ignores the core principle of closed loop control.

Monitoring and Controlling. Most of them you can close immediately because you have predefined processes and tools. In the end, you need requirements that software engineers will understand. Such approach doesn’t exempt you from delivering the project on-time and within budget. There is a bit of confusion here.

This Does Not Scale - If there are software development projects that can be executed without knowing how much it will cost in the end (an open ended spend plan), or projects where the budget is capped (a Not To Exceed Number) and we don't really need to know the upper bound of the features to be delivered, how large can this notion scale?

Two closely related conceptual errors appear to be quite common. First, there’s a tool-centric mentality about software-related work.
