               • Disciplined process to progressively add depth to
                 system architecture and component design in support
                 of the complete breadth of system requirements
               • Iterative process that continually revisits, analyzes,
                 and updates existing design as knowledge is gained
                 through detailed decomposition and design maturity
               • A process that dynamically adapts to the constraints
                 of the system and the constraints of management
                 resources

DOD RM Handbook

                     A common misconception, and program
                     office practice, concerning risk
                     management is to identify and track
                     issues (vice risks), and then manage the
                     consequences (vice the root causes).
                     This practice tends to mask true risks,
                     and it serves to track rather than resolve
                     or mitigate risks.

DOD Handbook RM Objective
     NASA PM Challenge


               The objective of a well-managed risk
               management program is to provide a repeatable
               process for balancing cost, schedule, and
               performance goals within program funding,
               especially on programs with designs that
               approach or exceed the state-of-the-art or have
               tightly constrained or optimistic cost, schedule,
               and performance goals…

               …Successful risk management depends on the
               knowledge gleaned from assessments of all
               aspects of the program…

                                        Caused By Insufficient BOE Or Optimism.



               •        Technical Risk Against KPPs & Thresholds Yields No Trade Space
               •        Result: No Resource Increases Will Eliminate Technical Risk.
                        True Technical Risk Will Always Result In A Requirements
                        Disconnect When Realized.
               •        True Technical Risk Requires Alternate Design Paths That Deliver
                        Lower, But Acceptable, Levels Of Performance
               •        Minimum Acceptable Performance, And Design, Must Be

DOD RM Handbook NASA PM Challenge A common misconception, and program office practice, concerning risk management is to identify and track issues (vice risks), and then manage the consequences (vice the root causes). This practice tends to mask true risks, and it serves to track rather than resolve or mitigate risks. Michael Gaydar, AIR-4.1, 301-757-5549 Version 1.0 10
  • 11. Risk Defined NASA PM Challenge DOD Risk Management Guide “Risk is a measure of future uncertainties in achieving program performance goals and objectives within defined cost, schedule and performance constraints.” RISK IS NOT: RISK IS NOT: Lack of Oversight, Failure to Plan, or Lack of Oversight, Failure to Plan, or Unrealistic Performance Goals Unrealistic Performance Goals Michael Gaydar, AIR-4.1, 301-757-5549 Version 1.0 11
  • 12. Risk Management NASA PM Challenge • Risk Management Is Only A Subset Of Project Management • Risk Identification – Poorly Understood – Incorrectly Implemented • Risk Mitigation Plans – Inadequate – Outside Daily Program Management • Risk Realization Totally Ignored Michael Gaydar, AIR-4.1, 301-757-5549 Version 1.0 12

  • 17. DOD Handbook RM Objective NASA PM Challenge The objective of a well-managed risk management program is to provide a repeatable process for balancing cost, schedule, and performance goals within program funding, especially on programs with designs that approach or exceed the state-of-the-art or have tightly constrained or optimistic cost, schedule, and performance goals… …Successful risk management depends on the knowledge gleaned from assessments of all aspects of the program… Michael Gaydar, AIR-4.1, 301-757-5549 Version 1.0 17
  • 18. Categories Of Risk NASA PM Challenge Risk Technical Critical Design Elements Depend On Technology That Is Just Not Achievable. Caused By Overreaching Performance Requirements Embedded In KPPs. Programmatic Resource Estimates (Budget & Schedule) Too Low. Caused By Insufficient BOE Or Optimism. • Technical Risk Against KPPs & Thresholds Yields No Trade Space • Result: No Resource Increases Will Eliminate Technical Risk. True Technical Risk Will Always Result In A Requirements Disconnect When Realized. • True Technical Risk Requires Alternate Design Paths That Deliver Lower, But Acceptable, Levels Of Performance • Minimum Acceptable Performance, And Design, Must Be Achievable Within Current State Of Technology.

  • 21. Ineffective Mitigation Paths NASA PM Challenge • Technical – Balance Design Against Unproven Technology – Pursue Single Design Path Hoping Testing Will Show Compliance – Carry Significant (RED) Risk Beyond Design Closure (Roughly PDR) • Execution – Hope For Optimistic Performance Through Management Challenges – Shift Risk To Suppliers In Firm Fixed Price Contracts – Fail To Include All Aspect Of Rebaseline In New EAC Michael Gaydar, AIR-4.1, 301-757-5549 Version 1.0 21
  • 22. Effective Risk Mitigation Plan NASA PM Challenge • Risk Realization MUST Be Part Of Risk Mitigation Strategy • Risk Mitigation Steps Must Address Root Cause Uncertainty – Technical: Demonstrate Improved Performance Predictions Or Alternate Design Path – Execution: Improve Resource Estimates • Technical Performance Measures (TPM) Are Essential To Mitigating Technical Risk • Task Identification Is Essential to Mitigating Execution Risk Risk Mitigation Steps Should Not Be A Way To Buy Time Risk Mitigation Steps Should Not Be A Way To Buy Time In The Hope The Risk Will Be Eliminated In The Hope The Risk Will Be Eliminated Michael Gaydar, AIR-4.1, 301-757-5549 Version 1.0 22
