Cost overrun, technical issues in equipments, lack of transportation of the materials, and medical
emergencies. These risk factors have been explained below,
Delay in Operations: The delay in operations is a primary factor that would tend to be
formed due to the issues in the project (Fleming and Koppelman 2016). The operations of the
project would comprise of developing the specific function to the project team member.
