  Patil on how to prevent spectacular project failures.&nbsp\;

 Avinash has introduced an innovative risk identification methodology to th
 e software industry which helps identify big problems\, fatal flaws in pro
 jects\, programs\, initiatives &amp\; improve changes of success of projec
 t.&nbsp\;This methodology will help you identify risks\, which cannot be f
 ound with traditional risk identification techniques. With this technique 
 you can find risk and fatal flaws in the plan/project at the beginning of 
 the project so that you will have time to act on those and improve changes
  of success of your projects. This technique has been used in many industr
 ies like oil &amp\; Gas\, Pharmaceuticals and construction which helped sa
 ve 100’s of millions of dollars. Avinash has used this methodology exten
 sively in the software industry with great success. This easy to use techn
 ique can be used in any industry or business and even in your personal lif
 e.&nbsp\;
