D3D Risk Assessment

The main sources of risk experienced in OSE's workshop model indlclude I order of I.pittance and sequencing:

• Design completion - without design co.position, an XM event is impossible to execute
• Instructionals completion - without instructionals completion, from full detail, to cheat sheet, to video detail - XM results are significantly degraded in terms of completion status and crowd enjoyment level
• Supply chain management - issues related to persistent supply chain variability, stock, shipping time, u proven sourcing, etc.
• Marketing - proper video and timely announcement, as well as campaign, are critical. A publicity strategy is the indispensable for success.
• Software (in projects requiring software jnstallation or use)

For the Prusa i3 kit from Folgertech, assuming this will be a continuing workshop, backups are needed for the comllete Folgertech kit. This includes laser cut parts, special motor mounts made of metal, off-shelf bolts etc, 3D printed parts, electronics, print surface (not included) and add-on.

Our evolution strategy is to minimize parts count in D3D, and to produce alternative sourcing, with multiple (5 good sources).
