RISK MITIGATION
8.1 GENERAL
earliest. The delays such as due diligence documents, concept and project
brief finalization including desired is finalized earlier with the consent of
client these kinds of major risk will be eliminated at the ease. The client being
proactive will eliminate many risk such as resizing and providing new ideas at
the later stage causing delay in scope delineation matrix as there wof
additional work, a proper study of the monsoon and better feasibility report
will reduce the numerous risk that are seen in resizing of the project causing
quantity variation redesign, delay in master plan preparation can be
eliminated. It is also observed that proper planning during the planning stage
will avoid many delay caused by material delivery, safety issues during night
work , resource shortage from vendors and revised BOQ materials. The delay
in master plan finalization can be prevented.it is estimated that a total of 25
risk can be reduced and 9 risk can be prevented that are causing serious risk
factor and impact in successful achievement of the project as per the schedule.
The mitigation measures for the identified risks during the construction of an
industrial building are tabulated in table 8.1.
