Harry is the project manager of the MMQ Construction Project. In this project, Harry has identified a supplier who can create stained glass windows for 1,000 window units in the construction project. The supplier is an artist who works by himself, but creates windows for several companies throughout the United States. Management reviews the proposal to use this supplier and while they agree that the supplier is talented, they do not think the artist can fulfill the 1,000 window units in time for the project's deadline. Management asked Harry to find a supplier who can fulfill the completion of the windows by the needed date in the schedule. What risk response has management asked Harry to implement?

Wait, can they really find someone else in time?

I don't think the artist can handle that many windows alone.

Definitely a mitigation strategy.

I remember discussing risk responses in class. If they want to ensure the windows are done on time, it seems like they’re trying to mitigate the risk by finding someone else.

I’m a bit confused. Wouldn’t transference be more about shifting the risk to another party? I don’t think that applies here since they just want a different supplier.

This reminds me of a practice question where we had to choose between avoidance and mitigation. I feel like they want to avoid the risk of late windows by finding a different supplier.

I think management is looking for a way to reduce the risk of delays, so it might be mitigation? But I'm not entirely sure.

I like the idea of using staff Super Users to provide feedback, but I'm not sure that would be enough on its own. A combination of methods like C seems like the safest bet.

I'm not certain about the specific terms given for the FRA. Did we cover how many would actually be correct? I recall similar questions but they weren't exactly the same.

This seems like a straightforward question. Decentralization does mean less control over data, so I'll go with True.

I've got this one! UAC is all about giving users more control over what software can do on their system. The right answer is definitely B - Limit the privileges of software. Easy peasy.

No problem, I've done plenty of these types of questions before. I'll just plug the numbers into the formula and round the answer to the nearest whole dollar.
