Risks
A Project Risk is an uncertain event or condition that, if it occurs, has an effect on at least one project objective. Risk management focuses on identifying and assessing the risks to the project and managing those risks.
Assumptions
Project Assumptions are things which you expect to be true but may not have the evidence to support it. Project Assumptions could be events or circumstances which you expect to occur in the lifecycle of a project
Issues
Issue management is the process of identifying and resolving issues. Problems with staff or suppliers, technical failures, material shortages, these differ from Risks as they have already occurred
Dependancies
Project Dependancies are simply project activities which have a reliance upon another activity - for example a Project may not be able to proceed until it has been approved by a sponsor.
