Explanation

Recurrent projects - those that have been performed before - tend to have more well-understood risks because the project team and organization can draw on historical data, lessons learned, and prior experience from similar projects. In contrast, state-of-the-art technology projects and first-of-its-kind technology projects involve novel or untested components, meaning risks are less predictable and harder to anticipate. Operational work is ongoing and routine but is not the same as a project. Recurrent projects benefit from pattern recognition, making risk identification, probability estimation, and impact assessment more reliable.
