Option #1: Sources of Technical Risks

In your required reading by Fontaine (2016), examine the information on technical risks to projects:

1. Identify an “intolerable technical risk” on a project with which you are familiar, or on one that you can research.
2. Describe the issue that created the intolerable technical risk and describe the risk itself.
3. Describe the treatment plan using cost-benefit analysis, where the risk severity is reduced to an acceptable level. (A risk register is not required for the paper with this option.)

Submission Requirements:

• For this assignment, you will be preparing your final paper for submission to a conference or journal for publication, as well as submitting the paper to your instructor.
• You may submit the paper to your choice of outlet (conference or journal). Since you may be charged for your submission to some outlets, you should examine options for submission by searching the internet to find both the best fit for your paper and the acceptable cost to you. There are many journals and conferences that consider papers for publication. You might consider submitting to PMI Knowledge Shelf or AACEi Conferences (Links to an external site.). Another example is The Clute Institute (Links to an external site.), which publishes many journals and hosts conferences. Note that some journals accept undergraduate and/or graduate submissions. Visit the Council for Undergraduate Research (Links to an external site.) to learn more. Read about the journal and the types of research it is interested in publishing. Make sure you understand the journal’s submission guidelines. Some outlets require submissions in APA format and some do not; and some have special accommodations for student publications.
• In an appendix after your references page, identify the following information for your submission: a) journal or conference name; b) why your paper is best suited for this outlet; and c) the submission guidelines in terms of process, requirements, cost, and general acceptance rates, if stated.
• Your paper must be 5-7 pages long, not including the required title and references pages and the appendix.
• Submit your paper in the format required by your selected outlet. (For example, if the outlet requires papers to be single spaced, then use single spacing.)
• Support your paper with a minimum of two current (no older than five years) scholarly sources from the CSU-Global Library, in addition to any course lecture material you wish to use. You must also use the Fontaine (2016) reading as one of the sources in your paper. Of course, you may always exceed the minimum number of sources.
• Your entire paper must be formatted according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing & APA (Links to an external site.).
