SEBoK is one of the source that acts as the fact that the data that are being used
are authorized and authenticated in nature. BKCASE also acts to be an
authorized and authenticated source from which the access of data can be
made use of with efficiency. GRCSE also acts as the major source of
authenticated source. This enables the fact that the data that are taken from
these sources are authorized in nature.

The major issue that insist the case that the cause of the hazardous instance
caused in the projection of the BP has been related to the fact that the deep
water horizon Texas disaster was no due to the fact of lack of management but
it was a natural disaster as the oil companies has huge revenue which leads to
the fact that the data projection included teg proper attention to the
organization and the project plan and the management theory that was put into
use by the processing of the organization.

The methodology that has been made use of, for the processing of the project is

data is collected by both quantitative means as well as the qualitative means.
Quantitative includes the fact that the data is collected by the means of the
taking interviews and surveys
