 1. Project Background

This project is designed towards designing and building the Rooney Family’s primary residence. The

7. Risk Management Plan

- Known Issues:

- Anticipated issues and potential risks:

- Overall Risk Plan Prioritization:

o The risk prioritization plan should prioritize protecting the budget within our risk plan.

The Rooney family has a set budget out of money that they think they can put into

building their dream home. We do not want this project to go over budget and cause

money insecurity to the Rooney family. That being said, quality is also important, as this

will be their forever home.

- Contingency Fund and Managerial Reserve Fund

o The funding requirements for this project are two-fold. The first is the contingency

reserve fund, and the second is the managerial reserve fund. These will be determined

by:

 Contingency Fund: This fund will be decided based on the calculation of 10% of

the estimated costs associated with this project

 Managerial Reserve Fund: This is decided on a fixed cost of $30,000 that will be

included within the budget.
