Abstract
A narrow approach to risk analysis and understanding the scope of a software project has contributed to significant software failures. A process is presented which expands the technical concept of software risk to include social, professional, and ethical risks that lead to software failure. Using an expanded risk analysis will enlarge the project scope considered by software developers. A tool to develop Software Development Impact Statements is also discussed.
