Tollgate planning, also known as Phasegate planning, is used in order to control high project risk. Tollgate planning divides the project tasks into phases. Each phase is structured around being able to resolve a major risk issue on the project. The phases are then ordered so that risks are addressed in a manner that minimizes the impact on later phases. Once all the tasks for a phase have been identified, the tasks are then budgeted and scheduled for that phase. Often the detailed tasks of a later phase can not be identified until an earlier phase is complete.
