Project Name: Bausch and Lomb
Risk Scope, Components, and Value
1 Scope of the Risk Management Plan
Define the boundaries of the risk management plan scope.
2 Risk Management Plan Components
Explain the components and the corresponding responsibilities that comprise the Risk Management Plan.
Describe the processes included in a risk management plan.
3 Expected Monetary Value
Apply an expected monetary value analysis to estimate the cost of a project without a risk plan.
Articulate the benefits of a risk management plan.
4 Determine the Risks
Identify sources of risk and the corresponding potential impact on project outcomes.
5 Evaluate and Assess the Risks
Define the elements of the risk breakdown structure for use in evaluating project risk.
Analyze the impact of risk on project outcomes.
6 Qualitative and Quantitative Processes
Apply qualitative and quantitative risk analysis.
Risk Analysis and Assessment
1 Major and Minor Risks
Analyze project risk to identify primary and minor risks associated with the project.
How were the risks determined?
Were qualitative or quantitative methods used?
Was the most effective method applied to determine risk?)
2 Risk Probability
(Integrate qualitative and quantitative risk analysis techniques to identify methods for evaluating the probability of a risk event.
How confident are you in the accuracy of the probabilities used?
What can you do to improve the accuracy of the probability?
3 Risk Matrix Template
Insert your completed Risk Matrix Template. See the end of this document for examples.
4 Risk Data Quality Strategy
Define the process and tools to be used to determine the quality of data for use in assessing project risk.
How reliable is the data?
What is the evidence of reliability?)
5 Risk Reviews
Define the process for risk reviews to be conducted throughout the project life cycle. Insert your completed Risk Monitoring and Control Template. See the end of this document for an example.
What is being done to reduce risk in the future proactively?
What is being done to communicate risks?
Corrective Action and Monitoring
1 Risk Tolerance
Evaluate the organizational and departmental tolerance for risk.
Discuss the different risk tolerances within the organization.)
2 Risk Mitigation
Identify risk mitigation approaches in support of the project.
How will you implement the mitigation approaches?
Have you identified specific triggers to initiate mitigation?
3 Corrective Risk Management Strategy
Describe your strategy for corrective risk management.
Explain whether you will use auditing, strategic planning, or another type.
Describe the corrective action process and responsibilities.
Will you be performing a risk postmortem? If not, why not?)
4 Corrective Action Plan
Assess corrective plan procedures in support of the project.
Is your documentation available to others?
Is it reviewed by the team or others?
Postmortem Plan
1 Results
Identify and describe how results data will be collected and reviewed to determine corrective actions.
Did your postmortem results lead to any concrete changes? Explain.
2 Follow Up
Evaluate the organization’s view of risk management and approach resulting from project outcomes.
Did this project change the organization’s approach and management of risk?
Describe the impact of postmortem results on the organization.
Recommend corrective plan procedures to effectively manage risk.
What recommendations would you make for future risk management projects?
What resources did you use to support your assertions?
