Risks Mentioned

  1. Fernando - Fail to identify the correct user requirements - Mitigation for architects to discuss in meetings and ensure the cases are clear using open discussions
  2. Matteo - A risk of what we build does not add a lot of value as the module does not fit the purpose. Our goal is for the users to use our standards and template but we can't force people to use it  - Mitigation of getting feedback from the pricing and PCF project users 
  3. Matteo - We are doing a lot of testing but none of it is the ideal solution as all product are using the projects and domain differently - Fernando mentioned we will review and improve throughout the future and do small increments and changes
