Improvement of the planning reliability by the integration of human skills in project risk management

Abstract : To make the project more profitable, the actors that are the more adequate to perform the tasks have to be selected and decisions about how to deal with risks during the project have to be made. In this paper, the resource management is integrated into a project risk management approach. A decision support system is proposed to help the project manager decide which risk treatment strategy to develop and which assignments to plan to be the more efficient as well as less sensitive to the risks. Finally, a case study based on a weather forecasting station project is developed to validate this approach.
