Indy Risk School
Team Environment
The final category of risk involves the intrinsic risks associated
with the project team. As documented by Larry Putnam and Ware Myers [1992] as
well as by Boehm and Jones, the most significant factor affecting project productivity,
risk and effectiveness is the capability, morale and experience of the team
members.
- The complexity or risk of the team
environment is related to the following factors:
- schedules, whether fixed or flexible;
- the experience and likely stability of
the project team;
- the development and estimated
timeframe of the project;
- use of outside vendors/contractors;
and
- the physical team/project environment.
