Comments for this Concern Item



I believe that having registered users contribute structured observations can enhance the Concerns Management process. Named comments can facilitate follow-up dialogue, while anonymous comments can help identify issues that might go unreported. A collection of comments can reveal patterns and provide evidence for the risk team to assess existing Concern narratives.

I believe it is important for the programme that we avoid overreaching with distribution curve based analysis of schedule and cost. We should use this technique as a simple tool for decision support and focus on frequent small scope analyses for insights, rather than conducting large scale, time-consuming analyses that may become redundant as the project develops.

I believe that while there has been extensive academic work on this topic, our main focus should be on successful project delivery and utilizing the QRA process for management decisions.
