Risk identification is a systematic attempt to specify threats to the project plan (estimates, schedule, resource loading, etc.). By identifying known and predictable risks, the project manager takes a first step toward avoiding them when possible and controlling them when necessary.
There are two distinct types of risks for each of the categories that have been presented: generic risks and product-specific risks. Generic risks are a potential threat to every software project. Product-specific risks can only be identified by those with a clear understanding of the technology, the people, and the environment that is specific to the project at hand. To identify product-specific risks, the project plan and the software statement of scope are examined and an answer to the following question is developed: “What special characteristics of this product may threaten our project plan?”
