Silex / Project Risk Snapshot
One missing pump threatens commissioning.
Stonefield water upgrade
Week 4 · Tuesday, 09:00
A dependency view for the project manager before the weekly schedule review.
Situation
The fictional pump supplier moves its dispatch estimate beyond the planned installation window. The test crew is still booked against the old sequence.
Decision supported
Validate the revised delivery date before retaining the test crew booking or proposing a new commissioning date.

Risk register
| Dependency | Assessment | Owner / next check |
|---|---|---|
| Pump arrival | High milestone exposure: the current sequence cannot be supported by the supplier estimate. | Procurement: obtain transport and arrival confirmation by Wednesday noon. |
| Test crew | Watch: the reservation may no longer align with installation readiness. | Project manager: check booking flexibility before changing dates. |
| Access | No new timing conflict identified in the demo permit record. | Site lead: verify work scope and conditions. |
Decision gate
Do not publish a replacement commissioning date until arrival, installation duration and test-crew availability have been reconciled. The snapshot identifies exposure; it does not establish an actual delay duration.
Confidence and limits
High that the plan contains a dependency conflict; low on the eventual commissioning date until transport and installation timing are confirmed.
Evidence register — all records invented
| Record / cut-off | Scenario information | Source quality / limitation |
|---|---|---|
| SF-01 / Mon 16:00 | Supplier email estimates dispatch in Week 6; the schedule expects installation in Week 5. | Direct demo correspondence; not a confirmed delivery appointment. |
| SF-02 / Tue 08:00 | Commissioning crew booking remains in Week 6. | Current demo booking; rescheduling terms not yet checked. |
| SF-03 / Mon 12:00 | Access permit recorded as issued through Week 7. | Demo permit copy; scope must still match planned work. |
