There are thee key dimensions to a project: time, budget/cost and quality.
Project risks can involve events which prevent the project from being completed
within the original budget, timescales and quality or that make the stakeholders
dissatisfied.
All projects have risks, denial does not make them go away, it just makes you
unprepared for them if they occur
Project risk management plays a key role in achieving the project's objectives by
identifying, analyzing and responding to risks that impact on them throughout the
life of a project.( from initiation to closing).
Risks are uncertainties which, if they occur, would affect the project
objectives either negatively (threats) or positively (opportunities).
Whichway- Activities
Wherewithal- Resources
When- Timetable
The design—be it a building, other physical product, service, or process
—drives the initial activity-based plans, associated plan-based resource
allocations, and plan-based timetable, the initial whichway, wherewithal,
and when.
Base plans include target scenarios that provide a bases for project preparation,
execution, and control.
Contingency plans are a second level plan that include predefined actions to be
taken in the event of any of the most likely risks occurring .
The contingency plan should aim to keep the project on track in terms of
maintaining the balance of budget, time and quality.
PROJECTS, RISK & PROJCT MANAGEMENT
All projects are different. The level of complexity differs and the
context in which a project exist will affect it.
Example: Which of the following activities would you consider to be projects?
Example
The possibility that planned productivity targets might not be met
Interest or exchange rates might fluctuate
The chance that client expectations may be misunderstood;
Whether a contractor might deliver earlier than planned
Project risks are uncertainties which, if they occur, would affect the project
objectives either negatively or positively ( PMI, 2000)
Uncertainty is about a future event that may or may not happen and that can have
impact on project objectives if it does happen
A “risk” is characterized by its probability of occurrence and its uncertain impact
on project objectives
All projects contain risk, arising from interactions between
• OBJECTIVES ... What must happen
• UNCERTAINTY ... What might happen
The roots of project risk lie in the forces acting on the company, and
the customer, as a whole.
