WHAT IS A RISK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The Management of risk requires that:
Risks are identified;
Their likelihood and consequence assessed;
Responses are planned and implemented; and
There is an on-going process of monitoring, appraisal and re-assessment, leading
to improvement.
It also requires :
Communication and understanding of the risks at the appropriate levels in the
organization, and
Enabling tools:
Risk Management System (RMS) =
Process + Organizational Framework + Tools

THE RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
Risk Management is a continuous process that applies to every stage of the project.
IDENTIFY & ASSESS SELECT DEFINE EXECUTE OPERATE
Each risk must have an owner
Responses must be resourced
Are responses effective ?
Are contingency plans needed ?
Treat/Terminate/Transfer/Terminate
The process loop repeats itself for each identified risk,
during all phases of the Project Life-cycle

ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
Management – Sets objectives, resources risk management system,
endorses RAM
Risk Coordinator – Facilitates the risk management process, ensures
quality of & reports risk information
Risk Owner – Describes, assesses & plans responses for ‘his/her’ risks,
tracks progress, reviews risk, improves responses, closes risks & keeps
records in register
Action Owner – Executes ‘his/her’ actions as intended and records status
in register
Team Member – Identifies risks & feeds back effectiveness of risk
responses

DEFINITIONS: RISKS VS ISSUES
The Risk Register should ONLY contain Risks, NOT:
Issues, and/or Worries / Concerns / Items that are “normal business”
Risk:
Possible future event which, if it occurs, would
affect project objectives either negatively (risks) or
positively (opportunities).
Issue:
Has a 100% probability of occurrence and hence is not a risk
A certainty that is evaluated and managed differently than a risk
Copyright of INSERT COMPANY NAME HERE 01/01/2024 11
DEFINITIONS – RISKS VS ISSUES
Risk Example:
It is the start of the day and it is partly cloudy.
You check the weather forecast and see there is a 50% chance of thunderstorms today.
The risk event is a thunderstorm, you have an estimate of probability and the
consequence is you get wet.
Being prudent you decide to take an umbrella with you in case the risk occurs.
Your personal Project plan has an identified contingency plan – the umbrella.
Issue Example:
Now lets assume you look out of the window and see it is raining heavily.
The fact that it is raining is no longer a risk, but a certainty.
It is an Issue and you’d better actively manage your response.
You can try to deny the Issue but you will only get wet.
Failing to manage your project issues is just plain stupid!
Worth pointing out the frequency on which people in any kind of project deny the
rain and go out hoping to dodge the raindrops in a downpour!!!

STRUCTURED RISK DESCRIPTION
Structured Three Part Risk Statement helps to clearly distinguish between
“Cause”, “Event” and “Consequence”, e.g.
“As a result of <definite cause>, <uncertain event> may occur, which would lead to
<consequences for the project objective(s)>”
As a result of adverse weather conditions, …you may get caught up in the rain,
which would lead to you getting wet and/or being late for a meeting etc.

RISK LEVELS & RESPONSE STRATEGIES
Severity
Response Strategy
Level
Requires urgent attention to reduce risk to an acceptable
Red level. Project Manager to ensure that risk is pro-actively
managed.
Requires continuous attention until risk satisfactorily
Orange resolved. Leadership Team to ensure that risk is actively
managed.
Requires management by risk owner to ensure risk does not
Yellow increase in severity.
Needs some monitoring to ensure that risk stays at
Green acceptable level.

BRAINSTORMING AGENDA
Total of xx pre-identified risks
Political – x
Economic - x
Commercial - x
Organisational - x
Technical – x
Copyright of INSERT COMPANY NAME HERE 01/01/2024 16
WORKING SESSION PROCESS
We will work off the pre-identified list of risks as per agenda
Try NOT TO GET “STUCK” discussing risks in detail. We only want to:
Confirm if they are valid (y/n)
Agree a short and clear risk title (Risk Event)
Confirm / Assign a Risk Owner (who ?)
At the end of each “Category”, we will brainstorm for any NEW risk
items for 10 mins, each individual should identify at least 1 up- and 1
downside risk
For these new Risks, focus on the Title (Risk Event)
