You are the new IT Project Manager for the organization you chose in Week 2, and the CIOneedsa risk assessment for migrating from SQL Server 2008 r2database to SQL Server 2016. The migration will lead to the expansion of the cloud datacenters worldwide.

The CIO feels the risk is too high and wants you to develop an Information Guide Handout and Risk Information Sheet for upper management to describe the risks and management of the risks for the impending migration.

Part A:

Needs to be a one page Information Guide Handout comparing risk management practices to use in the migration to present to upper management. Include the following:

• How risk mitigation strategy planning can reduce the likelihood or impact of risks
• How often risks will be reviewed, the process for review, and who will be involved
• The roles and responsibilities for risk management
• Adequate references to support your findings, information, and opinions
• A recommendation for the best risk management practice for this migration

Part B:

Using the structure shown below,make a four to five page Microsoft Excel Risk Information Sheet for at least 5 potential risksthat might be encountered during the conversion. Ensure that at least3 of the 5 risks you choose are project-management related.

Risk InformationSheet

• Risk Description
• Probability
• Impact
• Rationale
• Risk Mitigation

Refer tothe following guidelines:

• The risk description should fully describe the risk.
• The probability is the likelihood which that the risk will occur (i.e., low, medium, or high).
• The impact is how the organization will be affected if the risk does occur (i.e., low, medium, or high).
• The rationale should explain the reasons for your probability and impact assessments.
• The mitigation strategy should explain how each risk will be addressed.
• There should be one risk information sheet for each risk identified.
