USACE ECB 2019-3 (Revision 1) Risk Informed Decision Making for Engineering Work During Planning Studies -- Category: Guidance  

This Engineering and Construction Bulletin (ECB) outlines concepts, goals and provides interim guidance for the engineering and construction components associated with planning studies under the Director’s Policy Memorandum CW 2018-05 issued in May 2018, “Improving Efficiency and Effectiveness in USACE Civil Works Project Delivery (Planning Phase and Planning Activities).” A maxim of execution is that expedience is not to be prioritized over sound engineering judgment. The concepts in this ECB can also be applied, as appropriate, to other risk-informed efforts.
