Background:A common process and template for risk management is not shared across the projects. Specific project demands/needs for central functions such as Communications, IT and Human Resources are not consistently considered during project planning to understand/assess potential risks to resource capability and capacity. Management agreed to include the requirement for risk assessments to be monitored and updated in Schedule C of the PMMP.
Reason for Delay: Lack of resources available to carry out the tasks.The Executive Initiatives Coordinator (EIC) in the CAO’s Office has been seconded to the WFM project. This position has not been backfilled and therefore all projects, responsibilities, and duties have been put on hold until its return to the EIC position, the date of which is unknown at this time. |
