Risk management helps prevent many problems
on projects. Effective risk management also
helps to increase the probability and positive risk
or opportunities.
Through risk management the project management can
stay in control of the project rather than being controlled by
it.
The project manager, sponsor, team,
customer, other stakeholders and
experts may be involved in the Plan Risk
Management process to define how risk
management will be structured and
performed for the project.
The Plan Management Risk process answer the
