This happens when most of the stakeholders are concerned about risks. Risk factors are determined for the scope of the project, requirements, design and strategy, technology, processes (for development, payment, change management,

risk management, and closing the project), and conditions of the project. Risk factors are high when most of the stakeholders have concerns. Even if one important feature of a project appears too difficult to execute, the risk is high. Issues like

acceptable type of bugs and number of bugs for user acceptance, terms for closing the project, payments not being clear or misunderstood, make the project highly risky.

Answer option B is incorrect. Risks are low when issues like the format of the forms are not finalized but the functionality is thoroughly understood and solutions are approved. Answer option D is incorrect. Risks are rated medium when a very

finalize a few unimportant workflows.
