Success of a project depends onmany variable, similarly there are different reasons behind failure of a project. Going through thechaos reports of project failure helps in analyzing the different risks associated with a project,which further helps in identifying the risk mitigation approaches for similar projects in future(Hussain & Mkpojiogu, 2016).
