3.0 Risk Analysis
Project Risk Management is defined as “the process of conducting risk management planning, identification, analysis, response planning, and monitoring and control on a project.” (Gayani 1988)
Risk Analysis is a process which enables the Company to analysis and manages the potential problems associated with the project. This is an essential project management tool to enable pre- review of the project identifies the possible threats which are likely to face during the implementation of the project.
3.1 Risk Management
According to Institute of Risk Management, Risk management involves understanding, analysing and addressing risks to make sure organisations achieve their objectives. So it must be proportionate to the complexity

Contingency planning is defined as a forward planning process in a state of uncertainty, in which scenarios and objectives are agreed, managerial and technical actions defined, and potential response systems put in place, in order to prevent or better respond to an emergency(UNHCR, 1996) is substitute course of action prepared beforehand in case of risk appear and most typical contingency plan can be described as separate sufficient among of fund to as emergency fund to use for an unforeseen event occurs. Continuous risk management is very important and it should be followed repeatedly throughout the project. Contingency plans can be expensive and similar to

This force field analysis will weigh the driving and restraining forces that affect to complete the project successfully. The force file can be named as two opposite forces working for and against the change which is turning to oil major company via the acquisition of a number of the small gas firm.

3.7 Resources
EOG Resources – Share of EOG Resources (NYSE:EOG) picked up approximately 18%, since its 52 weeks of low of $60.24 a share on January 20, due a 7% increase in the oil price so far this year. This should have a positive impact on its financial performance in the first-quarter of 2016, considering the fact that EOG is taking various steps to survive this downturn efficiently. This includes, reduction in costs & capital spending, improving operational efficiencies through continued focus on innovative technology, shifting focus to premium locations that generates 30% rate of return at $40 per barrel of oil prices and improving balance sheet. Let us look at these initiatives in details. Reduction in costs and capital expenditure
But ordinary equality doesn't seem complex to

The National Preparedness System “outlines an organized process for everyone” and consists of six parts (National preparedness system, n.d.). These parts identify and assess risk, estimate and determine the capabilities and activities necessary to confront the situations, consider the best way to use resources to build capabilities, prepare, plan and deliver for each part of a community, validate capabilities, and finally review and update when necessary (id.). There are systems in place to do this including the Strategic National Risk Assessment, the State Emergency Operations Plans, the National Incident Management System, the Remedial Action Management Program, and the Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment
A catastrophic incident could result in sustained national impacts over a prolonged period of time; almost immediately exceeds resources normally available to state, local, tribal, and private-sector in the impacted area; and significantly interrupts government operations and emergency services to such an extent that national security will be threatened. (Reilly & Markenson, 2011, p.274) Analyze and explain real-life examples of disasters that overwhelmed a community, and its local resources. Evaluate and describe why an emergency management plan can fail.
So any misunderstandings easily solved without involving big
Another aspect of Porter’s Five Forces model is the threat of substitution, or how easy it would be for another company to take over the present business by innovating in some way. The threat of substitution is low but still present in the trucking industry. Due to the fact that a large majority of freight moved in the United States is moved by truck, it would be difficult to shift to a different mode of transportation. However, there are still other methods of travel that can be used, for example freight can be moved by airplane or by train within the United States. These alternative modes of transportation tend to be more expensive though, meaning it makes more sense for a company to simply purchase the services of a trucking company.
Porters Five Force Model Michael Porter developed a model for analysing the industry within which a business operates which is widely used in today’s competitive markets. The success of this model rests in the fact that it takes a holistic view of the industry in which the business is operating, and not a piece- meal approach which looks at each aspect in isolation. The Porter 's Five Forces tool is a simple but powerful tool for understanding where power lies in a business situation. This is useful, because it helps you understand both the strength of your current competitive position, and the strength of a position you 're considering moving into.
Each of the forces is determined how competitive in that industry as well as the structure of the industry. Porter’s five forces factors are consists of competitive rivalry, the threat of new entrants, the threat of substitutes, bargaining power from
To organise for project management requires an understanding of the organisation’s architecture which includes the organisational hierarchy - the grouping of internal business units, the authority lines and interaction with one another. Each of these aspects should be designed to support project management within the organisation. Structure should follow strategy or else it may impede communication, coordination and decision making which are all key to success (Brevis, 2014, p. 224). Hence, an important function of upper management is to support project teams by either redesigning the organisation to emphasize projects or integrating projects into the current organisation (Graham & Englund, 2004).
These factors are a big game changer towards the success and failure of a particular organization. These factors can be further evaluated using the widely used industry analysis approach, Porter’s Five Forces Model. In the Oil & Gas
Porter’s five forces is a framework that provides analysts with knowledge of the external factors regarding their company and the development of business strategy. These shows people how attractive a company is in a certain industry. I have chosen to develop the porter’s five forces strategy regarding Cisco and the information received. I will evaluate the competiveness, threat of substation, buyer power, supplier power and the threat of new entry.
Porter. This analysis is used to measure the level of competition of the company in same industry. Abundant of economic studies stated that different industries can survive at different profitability level, the difference is explained by industry structure ("Porter 's Five Forces," n.d.). In other words, this model identifies industry structure based on the varied profit margins between industries, to help the company determines corporate strategy ("Industry Analysis | Porter’s Five Forces | Competition," 2014). The objective in this analysis is to help managers determine profitability and attractiveness of an industry (Investopedia, n.d.).
Identify and list each of the Five Forces. There are several tools that are apparently used to understand how the environment affects businesses whether positively or negatively. However, Carpenter, Bauer and Erdogan (2010) provided the Five Forces frequently used to analyze the competitive environment of a firm which was developed by Michael E. Porter in 1979. The Porter’s Five Forces includes Rivalry, New Entrants, Buyers, Suppliers, and Substitutes.
3.2 Industry conditions (Porter 's Five Forces Analysis) Five forces which would impact an organization 's behavior in the market. Understanding the nature of these forces provides organizations the required insights to enable them to formulate the appropriate strategies to be successful in their market (Thurlby, 1998). 3.2.1 Threat of new entrants (high entry barriers) High capital investment for competitor entry into telecommunication industry. Companies in this industry maintain development, spend fairly large amount of capital on network equipment and incurred high fixed costs. Besides, technologies are also considered as barriers for new companies to enter the market.
