Our knowledge of this world - the planned and actual behaviors of the project. The naturally occurring work effort in the development of a software feature - even if we've built the feature before - is an irreducible uncertainty. Mazzuchi, and Shahram Sarkani, Systems Engineering , Volume 17, Issue 4, Winter 2014, Pages: 375–391.

Better have a plan to reduce technical and programmatic uncertainty (both of which have aleatory and epistemic behaviours respectively) at a planned rate, for a planned cost, on a planned time. Or plan on being late, over budget, and reduced probability of technical success, before you start. Related articles.

Showing up on or near the needed time at or near the planned cost is simple business. If we come out late with the product we lose revenue needed to meet the business plan. If we spend more than planned, we erode profit and fail to meet the business plan. Governance drives processes in Agile at Scale.
