    Challenges in Implementation Planning and Risk Management Failures Note: responses to classmates are in different colors; original answer is in black What problems have you faced when creating your implementation plan? In your experience, where do risk management plans fall short? When creating an implementation plan, risk management is often times overlooked. It is difficult to initiate the plan, but once it has finally been initiated, it is even more difficult to establish the plan’s requirements. Requirements are necessary in order to prevent risks from coming to fruition. The implementation plan also has to be an adequate ‘size’ and utilize an appropriate amount of resources – this is certainly difficult to establish. Sometimes the costs of an implementation can be too much and/or there may not be enough resources to execute it effectively. In this capacity, it is also possible that the system and/or users are not able to meet the exact specifications that have been provided. I think risk management often times falls short when it comes to cost. Sometimes it turns out that costs actually end up being more than the value of the NPV resulting from the cash flow from the project. It seems that project risks pertaining to an implementation seem often times relate to size. Sometimes the costs of an implementation become too expensive and/or there may be a limited amount of resources available. Also, I have found that the requirements may actually become too varied. I have also found that sometimes people are not willing or even unable to share pertinent information in regard to the target market as a result of the information being deemed as confidential.
