Timberline Health, an integrated delivery system serving residents in five counties in eastern Washington, is considering new opportunities to increase community awareness of the organization’s outpatient health services.

Research from comparable markets has shown that wellness fairs are not only effective at educating communities about potential risk factors for health problems, including hearing loss, but also increasing consumer awareness of new or existing health services provided by local health organizations. These activities are essential to Timberline Health’s mission within the community. Since…

Project Managers are often required to report on the conduct of their projects. The reporting is usually done at regular intervals, such as weekly status reports to the project Sponsor, monthly reports to the executive team on some sort of dashboard, and perhaps to the project team at major milestones.

XSU Spring Concert You are a member of the X University student body entertainment committee. Your committee has agreed to sponsor a spring concert. The motive behind this concert is to offer a safe alternative to Alta Vista Baby (AVB) Week‐end, a spring event in which students for X University rent houseboats to engage in heavy partying. Traditionally this occurs during the last weekend in May. Unfortunately, the partying has a long history of getting out of hand, sometimes leading to fatal accidents. After one such tragedy last spring, your committee wants to offer an alternative experience for those who are eager to celebrate the change in weather and the pending end of the school year. You have just finished a preliminary scope statement for the project (see below). You are now brainstorming potential risks associated with the project. 1.

Solve the question : Tony and his team identified some risks during the first month of the Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project. However, all they did was document the risks in a list. They never ranked the risks or developed any response strategies. Because the project has had several problems, such as key team members leaving the company, users being uncooperative, and team members not providing good status information. Tony has decided to be more proactive in managing risks. He also wants to address positive risks as well as negative risks. The question is : assign a numeric value for the probability and impact of each risk on meeting the main project objective.

III. Risks and Feasibility This section of your report identifies risks and confirms the feasibility of the information systems development project. Project feasibility analysis verifies whether a project may be started and successfully completed. Your report should address the feasibility issues listed below. Start by clearly describing what issues are addressed by each feasibility category (see the relevant definitions in the textbook), and discuss the feasibility of the project with respect to each category. Determine organizational and cultural feasibility. This evaluates organizational and cultural issues to identify potential risks for the new system. See pp. 269–270 of the textbook for examples of potential issues.Note: the textbook does not provide an exhaustive list of possibilities!Note: ‘organization’ in this context refers to the Car Sharing community—all stakeholders, but particularly members and prospective members.
