"Description of risk";"Work package(s) involved";"Proposed risk-mitigation measures" "Lack of communication, lack of respect for planning and deadlines, or partner underperformance";WP1;"An adequate management structure has been designed, which will be carried out by management-skilled academics and experienced consultant companies. Frequent (teleconference) meetings will be held. Most partners already know each other in their respective fields." "Organisational financial problems require reducing project budget";WP1;"All partners will monitor audit certificates and financial problems and will report to the EB on a regular and planned basis." "Partner leaves the consortium";"WP 1";"Consortium partners have a large mutual drive to work together. In the unlikely event a partner leaves the consortium, all partners will be responsible for seeking a new partner that has similar capabilities and is able to finish the work. All participants have an extensive network to tap into.  For other parts, the remaining partners will finalise the work." "Lack of integration of results of partners leading to underperformance";"WP 1";"An adequate management structure has been conceived. The consortium partners will organise dedicated site visits and exchange of personnel if needed." "A potential risk is the lack of willingness of stakeholders to participate in the face-to-face focus groups.";"WP 2";"The partners involved in the identification and invitation of stakeholders for each country know the field very well and are able to address relevant individuals and organisations personally if interest is low." "A potential risk is the large number of elements in the normative framework.";"WP 2";"The partners involved in analysing the focus groups have experience in clustering data and determining core concepts. By organizing two rounds of focus groups, the stakeholders will be included in this process. Results will also be discussed with the Advisory Board." "A potential risk is the lack of willingness of stakeholders to participate in the online focus groups.";"WP 2";"The partners in the project together know relevant colleagues in all European countries which will be asked for assistance in identifying and inviting participants." "Based on our experience with the collection of national guidelines and legislation in EFTA member states it is clear that most of these (at that time national) documents are not always easy to find, although one would expect otherwise.  A possible risk is that the period of the project will not be sufficient to collect all the relevant documents in the EU member state.";"WP 3";"We expect that the expertise and experience of our consortium, and the existing network of national contact persons will be able to limit this risk." "A potential risk is the lack of willingness of stakeholders to contribute to data collection.";"WP 4";"The partners involved in the identification and invitation of stakeholders for each country know the field very well and are able to address relevant individuals and organisations personally if interest is low." "A potential risk is the systematization of possibly very heterogeneous data from different countries.";"WP 4";"We will use the normative framework developed in the stakeholder consultation and experience from other organizations (such as World Health Organization country statistics, http://www.who.int/gho/countries/en/) to construct the information so that it includes general indices of RE+Ri plus individual country specificities." "A potential risk is the language barriers, particularly for information from the South-East Europe.";"WP 4";"The lead partner for the WP (MEFST) has excellent contacts in the countries of the region and speaks similar language to many of the countries in the region." "A potential risk is the number of RE+RI cases that are found, which may be either too small or too large. If the number is too small, further search strategies will be applied, making use of expert knowledge of partners and other RE+RI leaders. If the number is too large, methods of limiting the number of cases will be deployed in the search strategies such as exclusively focusing on a recent time period.";"WP 5";"It has to be kept in mind that a community will be established, dedicated to the project’s long-term continuity of the online forum. So the platform will be interactive and sustainable, meaning that additional cases can be gathered, added and analysed after the EnTIRE project has been completed. Hence, aiming to be exhaustive is not pivotal." "The project becomes dependent on the ICT supplier through the use of proprietary software.";WP6;"This risk is fully mitigated as we will only work with open source software and will publish the entire platform online together with sufficient documentation. This ensures that any other ICT firm (and the open source community) can continue to work with the platform. The platform is created by and for the community and will become an entity (non-profit organisation)  independent from the ICT partner and the consortium by using this approach." "The platform will be attacked by computer hackers";WP6;"We will ensure the latest versions of relevant software packages to mitigate this risk. Also adequate  infrastructure to prevent common security attacks will be used. Moreover, a back-up of the platform will be created on a daily basis." "The vastness of (different types of) content on the platform inhibits efficiently finding what is relevant.";WP6;"As mentioned in Section 1, several similar attempts in the US have succumbed to this risk. In this project it will be actively mitigated by using a software platform which was designed to handle large and different types of content (Wiki-software). The advisory board includes professor Ray de Vries from the University of Michigan in the US who, based on the prior experience in the US, will advise about what is relevant. " "Lack of volume of users (‘critical mass’)";WP7;"Approaches include but are not limited to giving stakeholders an active role, distributing the benefits of an open access platform, active lobbying of research organisations and tailoring the incentives (taking into account any cultural differences).  " "Not achieving an elaborate community and stable long-term committed user base.";WP7;"The EnTIRE platform allows for effective community management by design. Moreover, the lead of WP 7 has experience in open source community management, the overall lead of the project has an elaborate network in RE+RI and has invited other WP leads with similarly sized RE+RI networks which mitigates this risk. " "Lack of budgets and external investments for long-term sustainability.";WP7;"The community approach will mitigate this risk, because financial needs will be comparatively limited and community members will include organisations which can act as lead and partners in the future consortium. "
