Synopsis

According to statistics, only 20% of projects are named as successful with respect to all pre-defined objectives met. Project Managers blame on unexpected things happened like prices change, staff turnover, complicated processes or even policy changes.

How come such complaints arise after problems occur? It is no doubt that risks should be planned ahead, not just be managed. People become wiser after disaster but may not learn from mistakes. Risk management is an important module in all project management methodology, which appears in early stage — “Planning”. With a proper Risk Management Plan, the Project Plan can be implemented in more controlled manner.

Risk Management is a system process of identifying, analyzing and responding to project risks. It includes maximizing the probability and impact of positive events and minimizing the probability and impact of adverse events to project objectives.

Benefits of implementing Risk Management can be summarized below:

  • More information is gathered => increase chance of project success
    • Discover the unknown => more in control
    • Project objectives are verified => better communication
    • Know what may happen => take early actions rather than ‘panic’
    • Cancels poor projects
