You likely have already answered this for yourself but wanted to pick up your question on residual versus secondary risk - it arises often in our course delivery. In a nutshell, secondary risk are a result of your risk management strategies for a triggered even; residual risk are those things/risks that were not identified during risk identification.

Bundle of thanks. In urdu here in Pakistan "josheela" means an ambitious person, let me frankly tell you that your ways of explaining things are awesome and 'You are a real JOSHEELA mentor in promoting Proj Mgt'. Though i attended 5-D training course but it was too intensive to grasp all concepts of PMBOK. N.B. I also access your mails from helixpk@gmail.com What a class of knowledge you have shared.

Gold plating is a subtle difference. With gold plating, the project team adds features or functionality that are not required. I've run into this on projects where the developers (and myself when I was a developer) did extra things because they were "cool". We didn't go through the change process, so this extra work is unaccounted for in the original plan. As a result, gold plating leads to a slip in schedule or decreased quality of something that really WAS part of the true requirements for the project. I'm suggesting here that we use the change control processes to ensure that these "cool" things we can add really are the right decisions for the project as a whole. Thank you for the question!
