Building upon the first part of the course project, consider that you are an appointed contractor to construct your chosen project.  At this time, you will need to address and explain the following:

1.  Identify sources of risk, including any issues that may impede or impair the completion of the project (See Chapter 9, page 103, Review Chapter 10 for examples and lists of potential project risks).

2.  Given the sources of risk in the point above, offer details regarding the systems that the contractor should have in place in order to avoid the identified risks (See Chapter 9, page 103-104, Review Chapter 10 for examples and risk treatment options).

3.  Create a fault tree that will discuss the risks associated with the catastrophic failure of the project (either during construction or after completion). Create a write up for this type of failure and address how these risks can be avoided, mitigated or otherwise reduced. (Review Chapter 27 for listings of risks and treatments)

The paper could also include any other risk worksheets, tables, charts or diagrams that would support any of these concepts or ideas.  Do not limit yourself to just what is in the text or course as there is a wealth of information regarding risk and risk treatment available in the library.
