    SCD has been approached by ZZ, a specialist manufacturer of extremely expensive high performance cars. ZZ is in the process of developing a new car that will be one of the fastest in the world.

    The car will be designed to be driven on public roads, but the owners of such cars often take them to private race tracks where they can be driven at very high speeds. ZZ has designed an electronics system to enable an average driver to drive the car safely at high speed.

    The system will monitor the engine, brakes and steering and will compensate for errors that could cause a crash. The system will, for example, sense that the car is about to skid and will compensate for that. The electronics system will be based on a circuit board that ZZ wishes to have built by SCD.

    Building ZZ’s circuit board will pose a number of challenges for SCD. The circuit board will be subject to a great deal of vibration when the car is driven at speed. The cars are expected to last for a very long time and so there could be problems if the circuit boards deteriorate with age. The circuit board will be installed in an inaccessible part of the car where it will be difficult to inspect or maintain.

    Qa) Assess four significant risks associated with accepting the order from ZZ?

    Can we write abt strategic risk and explain abt the strategic isssues scd wud face if the circuit board has any manufacturing defect resulting in human casualities and car failures.this could call for public n media attention and defame scds reputatn and subsequently lose any on going contracts as well as future comittments???
