Contents
Project risks characterized
- Qualitatively: identification of undesirable events supposed not to occur.
- Quantitatively: potential over-cost multiplied by probability of occurrence.
Project Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA)
- Project baseline plan failure mode analysis, and identification of severity of prospective failures.
- Engineering failure severity using Ishikawa methodologies.
Risk analysis
- Identification and prioritisation of risks before determining adequate strategies: acceptance, avoidance, mitigation or transfer.
- Stakeholders requirements and related preventive or contingency mitigation.
- Negotiation for "who takes the risk"; subsequent determination of contingency and risk budgets.
- Application in large projects.
Risk management
- Monitoring risk factors.
