Abstract: The focus phase of the basic Performance Uncertainty Management Process (PUMP) is about adapting the generic process to the specific project context of immediate interest. This chapter explains that generic PUMP pack processes provide a framework for uncertainty management but the precise scope and detail of analysis in each phase will depend upon the application and corporate context. Current common practice project risk management process descriptions usually employ a process initiation equivalent to the focus phase, which is comparatively limited. A central limitation of common practice is often the use of a linear process, a process that is not iterative by design. The opportunities for uncertainty management in projects are considerable, pervasive, and diverse. Any systematic efforts at project uncertainty management must be carefully designed and managed if clarity efficiency is to be achieved. Achieving clarity efficiency is the goal of the focus phase. The chapter discusses the specific tasks of the focus phase. The deliverables provided by the focus phase may be a single document or parts of several documents.
