12. Structured review of the project plans and assumptions - prior project files - contracts - and other information.






13. A general data gathering and creativity technique that can be used to identify risks - ideas - or solutions to issues by using a group of team members or subject matter experts which data can be addressed later in Perform qualitative and quantitative

15. Outcome of activities performed to accomplish the project.






16. Process of identifying the specific actions to be performed to produce the project deliverables.






17. A documented tabulation of schedule activities that shows the activity description - activity identifier - and a sufficiently detailed scope of work description so project team members understand what work is to be performed.

19. Charts that are used to show positions and relationships in a graphical format.






20. A schedule network analysis technique used to determine the amount of scheduling flexibility on various logical network paths in the project schedule network - and to determine the minimum total project duration. Early start and finish dates are calc






21. Determining which risks may affect the project and documenting their characteristics.






22. Used to rate or score seller proposals






23. A formal procedure for authorizing project work to ensure that work is done by the identified organization at the right time and in proper sequence.

31. A -specific version of the schedule model used to compare actual results to the plan to determine if preventive or corrective action is needed to meet the project objectives.






32. Responses to emerging risks that was previously unidentified or accepted. These were not planned in advance of the occurrence of the risk event.






33. Project team accepts the risk - i.e. team decides not to change the project plan to deal with the risk - or is unable to identify any other suitable response strategy.






34. Process of implementing risk response plans - tracking identified risks - monitoring residual risks - identifying new risks - and evaluating risk process effectiveness throughout the project.






35. An estimating technique that uses the values of parameters - such as scope - cost - budget - and duration or measure of scale such as size - weight - and complexity - from a previous - similar activity as the basis for estimating the same parameter o






36. Effect on project objectives if the risk event occurs.
