Imagine that you are a member of a project team that has been charged with developing a new product for the residential building industry. Using a qualitative risk analysis matrix, develop a risk assessment for a project based on the following information: : Identified risk factors Likelihood 1. Key team members pulled off project 1. High 2. Chance of economic downturn 2. Low 3. Project funding cut 3. Medium 4. Project scope changes 4. High 5. Poor spec. performance 5. Low Based on this information, how would you rate the consequences of each of the identified risk factors? Why? Construct the risk matrix and classify each of the risk factors in the matrix.
