The key elements of ERM are the policy itself, the strategy, and the plan (Harb, 2008). If Non-Linear Pro had embraced and implemented a successful ERM plan, many of these negative consequences could have been avoided. Effective and Efficient Framework Harb suggests that firms have a well documented ERM policy and plan (2008). Had Non-Linear Pro had such a policy and plan in place, they would have been able to anticipate many of the problems Quick Takes Video is encountering with the editing software and addressed these difficulties before they became full size problems. A well laid ERM plan would have involved on-site set up and training for Quick Takes Video’s staff, along with follow up to ensure everything was working smoothly and as expected. Risk Management is Applied in Practice Non-Linear Pro needs to not only assess their possible risks, but also apply this assessment in practice. The salesman is directly responsible for over promising and under delivering on this editing software, therefore creating a possible breach of warranty. It is more likely that he is a poor salesman, as opposed to having acted with negligence or malicious intent, so any attempt to hold him personally responsible would likely fail. But as he was acting in the course of his employ with Non-Linear Pro, and was Quick Takes Video’s direct contact person with the company, the errors of the salesman belong to Non-Linear

Co. v. Tolley, 351 Pa. Super. 32, 41 (1985) (internal quotations omitted). If a court found that the failure to render payment under these factors constituted an immaterial breach, then the caseation of work would then constitute a breach. This analysis is a fact-intensive analysis, and accordingly, I cannot definitely opine on how a court interpret these factors in this case. Nevertheless, I strongly suspect that HDR’s failure to render payment in accordance with the contract would constitute a material breach. So long as 1) HDR did—in fact—breach the contract; and 2) that breach was material, Century is justified in stopping work under the project. Nevertheless, I must bring to your attention these risks associated with stopping work.
