PURPOSE: 
This Risk Management Plan provides the project with a consistent method to manage risks to ensure success. Risk management is the processes for identification, assessment, mitigation, tracking, control and management of the project's risks. It drives decisions that affect the development of the business capability and the management of the project.
OBJECTIVES: 
Specific objectives of this project’s Risk Management Plan include: 
  • Ensure critical risks impacting scope, schedule, budget, business performance, and/or change management are proactively identified, communicated, mitigated, and escalated in a timely manner. 
  • Facilitate attention to key risks impacting the project and individual teams. 
  • Produce meaningful information that allows project managers to focus efforts on the “right” (high likelihood and high impact) risks with an effective coordination of effort. 
  • Ensure appropriate stakeholders are informed and, if applicable, participate in the mitigation. 
  • Record an audit trail of discussions and mitigation of project risks.
