Abstract:This paper examines software risk management in a novel way, emphasizing the ways in which managers address software risks through sequential attention shaping and intervention. Software risks are interpreted as incongruent states within a socio-techincal model of organizational change that includes task, structure, technology, and actors. Such incongruence can lead to failures in developing or implementing the system and thus to major losses. Base on this model, the authors synthesize a set of software risk factors and risk resolution techniques, which cover the socio-technical components and their interactions.
