Dependencies between projects

What waits on what. Red links are on the programme’s critical path.

Critical path

Migration needs the backup centre ready before the critical systems move
Security controls are applied to the cloud tenancy before migration

Shared risks

Risks that hit more than one project, managed at programme level.
