Mitigating Risk
Evaluating the project risk:
Risk Assessment
Identify all the known risks. Identify the probability of the risk happening (high, medium, low) and the impact of the risk if it actually occurs (high, medium, low). For all high probability and high impact risks identify a mitigation plan.
Risk Example: bad weather will delay home construction:
- Probability: High
- Impact: High
- Mitigation Plan:
-
Frame in the dry season and enclose the home before the rainy season
- Include weather impact days in the schedule
- Identify tasks that can be completed during inclement weather
- Watch the weather predictions and plan accordingly
Uncertainties embedded in the projects are the major cause of … mismanagement.
