Project Background: Paw Snacks Puppy Treats
Company Overview
Paw Snacks is an online retailer that grew from a startup to a 350-person organization.
Plans to launch a new line of puppy treats.
Identifying the Issue
Situation
Six weeks before launch, Naja, the project manager, learns the cookie cutters needed for production have not arrived.
The delay threatens the launch date, which cannot be postponed due to nonrefundable advertising commitments.
Planning for Risks
Risk Register Creation
Months earlier, Naja and her team brainstormed potential risks and created a risk register.
They assessed the likelihood of the cookie cutter delay as medium probability with high impact.
Mitigation Plan
Abe was tasked with developing a mitigation plan to address this risk, which was approved by stakeholders.
Managing the Issue
Options for Resolution
Upon the delay, Naja and Abe consult the mitigation plan.
They consider two options:
Increase production at the bakery to compensate for lost time.
Order from a second bakery to expedite production.
Decision Making
They choose option one to avoid complications from involving another bakery.
They assess that a smaller order will have a minor impact on projected growth and decide to accept this risk.
Communication and Execution
Stakeholder Communication
Naja meets with her project sponsor to discuss the adjusted plan and associated risks.
The sponsor approves the new plan.
Implementation
Abe communicates the updated plan to the bakery manager, allowing baking to commence two days late but ensuring timely product launch.
