Nafath and SADAD integration interfaces not ready on time
A risk's detail, response, contingency and residual risk.
Risk statement
From cause to event to impact — with the preventive controls before the event and the contingency after it
Cause
The platform depends on a shared NIC test environment, and the updated SADAD specifications have not been delivered
Preventive controls
- Reserve a dedicated NIC test environment for three months
- Build a SADAD interface simulator so development continues without the environment
- Weekly checkpoint with the Nafath team on interface readiness
3 / 4
Event
Nafath and SADAD integration interfaces not ready on time
The test environment is still unavailable on 2026-11-15, or integration testing fails twice in a row
Contingency
Launch wave 1 with the services that need no e-payment, and move fee-based services to wave 2
Impact
A 40-day integration slip pushes wave 1 and the official launch past March 2027, with about SAR 2.4M of extra vendor team cost
