Risk-Based Project Development
Historically, baseline design guidance has advocated the use of project development procedures that assume near-worst-case scenarios and therefore the selection of conservative design parameters. As Kentucky's project managers redouble their efforts to identify project solutions that minimize impacts and costs, it will be critical to develop and implement a risk-based approach to project development that is rooted in a performance based flexible solutions (PBFS) framework. This research will examine Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's (KYTC’s) project development processes and quantify risks associated with project team assumptions and decisions made at the corporate, programmatic, and project levels. KYTC leadership and project managers can use project findings to identify risks and evaluate risk-mitigation solutions to that minimize impacts as well as project costs.
