1.

Course developer

There are five of us set up to do the work for this project with no slack time. What happens if one of us gets sick?

Mitigate - Be ready to hire a contract course developer to work with the other course developers. See if it’s possible to find someone with graphic skills, too.

Owner: Lead course developer

Alarm: Any course development schedule slippage.

2.

CSR supervisors

10/1

When the CSRs go through new training, there is always a spike in the time it takes to handle a customer while the new training is learned. Will this spike create customer complaints more than 2%?

Transfer - Develop an agreement with the outsourced call center for overflow calls on Mondays for 6 months.

Owner: Lead CSR supervisor.

3.

Reproduction facilities

10/1

We’ve been having problems with our paper supplier. We might not have enough paper on hand to create the textbooks in the time frame you want.

Technologists

10/1

We have seen a new training system build by XYZ technologies that handles CSR transactions at lightening speed. If you choose to use the old system, you might not get processing that is fast enough to keep the customer complaints below 2%.
