CHAPTER 14 Project Risk Management
Risk Management Process (cont.) • Step 1: Establishing the risk context • Step 2: Risk identification • Step 3: Risk analysis • Step 4: Risk evaluation • Step 5: Risk treatment • Step 6: Contingency planning
Step 1: Establishing the Risk Context • What is the organisation’s context for risk? • How does this affect the project environment? • How are ‘individual’ risk tolerances levelled? • Do you use the ‘As Low As Reasonably Possible’ (ALARP) approach?
Step 2: Risk Identification • WBS • RBS • Risk Profiles • Lessons learned • Delphi method • SWOT • Others…
Step 2: Risk Identification (cont.) The Risk Breakdown Structure (RBS)
Step3: Risk Analysis • Probability refers to the probability of the event. (This is otherwise known as the likelihood of the risk occurring.) • Impact refers to the impact of the event. (This is otherwise known as the consequence of the risk if the event occurs.)
Step 3: Risk Analysis Simple ‘inherent’ risk analysis
Step 3: Risk Analysis (cont.) Impact considered over multiple criteria
Step 3:Risk Analysis (cont.) Decision tree analysis
Step 4: Risk Evaluation • The purpose of risk evaluation is to assist in making decisions, based on the outcomes of the risk analysis, about which risks need treatment and the priority for treatment implementation. • Risk evaluation involves comparing the level of risk found during the analysis process with risk criteria established when the context was considered. • Based on this comparison, the need for treatment can be considered. (AS/NZS/ISO 31000:2009)
Step 5: Risk Treatment for Threat Risks • Mitigating risk • Avoiding risk • Transferring risk • Accepting (retaining) risk
Step 5: Risk Treatment (cont.) Mitigation and residual risk assessment
Step 5: Risk Treatmentfor Opportunity Risks • Exploit • Share • Enhance • Accept
Step 6: Contingency Planning A contingency plan is an alternative plan that will be used if a possible foreseen risk event becomes a reality (an issue).
Step 6: Contingency Planning (cont.) Risk contingency plan
Step 6: Contingency Planning (cont.) Common methods for handling risk • Technical risks • Schedule risks • Cost risks • Funding risks
Contingency Funds and Risk • Budget reserves • Management reserves • Time buffers How are risk contingencies managed in your organisations?
Risk Management Plan • Risk context • Risk methodology • Risk roles and responsibilities • Risk escalation process • Risk reporting • Risk audits and health checks • Lessons learned
