Abstract: Methods, computer readable media, and apparatuses for aligning project deliverables with project risks are presented. According to one or more aspects, an architectural assessment of a new project may be received at an initial estimation phase of the new project. Subsequently, a rigor worksheet for the new project may be received at the initial estimation phase of the new project. A rigor score for the new project then may be calculated based on the architectural assessment and the rigor worksheet. Thereafter, one or more project deliverables to be imposed on the project may be selected based on the calculated rigor score.
