Risks Risk is the uncertainty that comes from making any change. A risk may or may not happen but if it occurs it will have a material impact on the success of the project.  Effective risk management requires identification of the risk, an assessment of the probability and impact, contingency planning and  identification of mitigation action. Identify the most important risks for this project and any management actions required to reduce the negative impact or the probability of the risk occurring.  Probability =  Low, Medium, High, Critical Impact = Low, Medium, High, Critical. Management Approach is either:
  • Monitor/Retain - accept the risk but continue to monitor
  • Reduce - take action to reduce the impact or probability
  • Remove - eliminate the risk entirely
  • Transfer - move the risk to a third party
For the selected approach identify the most important actions that will be taken to manage the risk.
