  2. PROJECT RISK MANAGEMENT DEFINITION: Project Risk Management includes the processes of conducting risk management planning, identification, response planning, and controlling risk on a project. The objectives of project risk management are to increase the likelihood and impact of positive events, and decrease the likelihood and impact of negative events in the project.

  3. What will be Developed from Project Risk Management? • Plan Risk Management • Identify Risks • Perform Qualitative Risk Analysis • Perform Quantitative Risk Analysis • Plan Risk Responses • Control Risks

  4. Project Risk Management Processes

  5. Plan Risk Management DEFINITION: The process of defining how to conduct risk management activities for a project • Planning risk management : Deciding how to approach and plan the risk management activities for the project.

  6. Plan Risk Management • The main output of this process is a risk management plan—a plan that documents the procedures for managing risk throughout a project • The project team should review project documents and understand the organization’s and the sponsor’s approaches to risk • The level of detail will vary with the needs of the project

  7. Identify Risks DEFINITION : The process of determining which risks may affect the project and documenting their characteristics.

  8. Identify Risks • Identifying risks is the process of understanding what potential events might hurt or enhance a particular project • Another consideration is the likelihood of advanced discovery • Risk identification tools and techniques include: • Brainstorming • The Delphi Technique • Interviewing • SWOT analysis

  9. Identify Risks • Brainstormingis a technique by which a group attempts to generate ideas or find a solution for a specific problem by amassing ideas spontaneously and without judgment • TheDelphi Techniqueis used to derive a consensus among a panel of experts who make predictions about future developments • Interviewingis a fact-finding technique for collecting information in face-to-face, phone, e-mail, or instant-messaging discussions • SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) can also be used during risk identification and identify the broad negative and positive risks that apply to a project

  10. Perform Qualitative Risk Analysis DEFINITION : The process of prioritizing risks for further analysis or action by assessing and combining their probability of occurrence and impact. • Risk quantification tools and techniques include: • Probability/impact matrixes • The Top Ten Risk Item Tracking • Expert judgment

  11. Perform Quantitative Risk Analysis DEFINITION :The process of numerically analyzing the effect of identified risks on overall project objectives • Often follows qualitative risk analysis, but both can be done together • Large, complex projects involving leading edge technologies often require extensive quantitative risk analysis • Main techniques include: • Decision tree analysis • Simulation • Sensitivity analysis

  12. Plan Risk Responses DEFINITION : The process of developing options and actions to enhance opportunities and to reduce threats to project objectives. • After identifying and quantifying risks, you must decide how to respond to them. • Four main response strategies for negative risks: • Risk avoidance • Risk acceptance • Risk transference • Risk mitigation

  13. Control Risks DEFINITION : The process of implementing risk response plans, tracking identified risks, monitoring residual risks, identifying new risks, and evaluating risk process effectiveness throughout the project

  14. Control Risks • Involves executing the risk management process to respond to risk events and ensuring that risk awareness is an ongoing activity performed by the entire project team throughout the entire project • Workarounds are unplanned responses to risk events that must be done when there are no contingency plans • Main outputs of risk control are: • Work performance information • change requests • updates to the project management plan, other project documents, and organizational process assets

  15. Chapter Summary • Project risk management is the art and science of identifying, analyzing, and responding to risk throughout the life of a project and in the best interests of meeting project objectives • Main processes include: • Plan risk management • Identify risks • Perform qualitative risk analysis • Perform quantitative risk analysis • Plan risk responses • Control risks
