I. Risk Description
The risk identified involves the potential shortage of specialized resources required for the project's successful execution. This may include the lack of skilled technicians, necessary materials, or advanced technological tools which are crucial for maintaining project momentum and meeting deadlines.
II. Risk Impact
A resource shortage could significantly delay project timelines, inflate costs due to the need for expedited shipping or hiring, and potentially compromise the overall quality and delivery of the project. This could lead to missed contractual obligations and reduced stakeholder satisfaction.
III. Likelihood/Probability
The probability of encountering a resource shortage is assessed at a moderate level. With global supply chains becoming increasingly unstable by 2060, and the specific expertise required being in high demand, the likelihood is estimated at around 60%.

The responsibility for managing this specific risk lies within the scope of duties assigned to the Resource Management Team. The leadership of this team is undertaken by the Senior Resource Coordinator, a role currently held by Alex Marshall, who is tasked with overseeing the team's operations and ensuring effective management of the risk.
VI. Trigger Events

A contingency budget of approximately $500,000 is allocated for resource acquisition. This includes potential costs for expedited material shipping and the hiring of temporary skilled labor. Additionally, ensuring cross-training for existing staff requires an investment in training programs, estimated at $100,000.
