Risk identification and management for projects can be fragmented across documents. This Skill provides a structured approach to identify, score, and document risks, enabling reliable decision-making and sponsor communication.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Import risks from 6.1/6.2/4.2 and other inputs to draft risk entries.
  • Add risks with required fields (category, source, description, likelihood, impact, response_strategy) and automatically compute risk_score.
  • Set risk tolerance, run risk matrix, and generate a formal recommendation and sponsor report.
  • Save outputs as {project}_risk_assessment.json and a Markdown report for distribution and traceability.

Quick Start

Start by running the end-to-end risk assessment workflow for the current project to generate the risk registry and sponsor report.

Generate a sponsor report by setting risk tolerance and running the risk matrix workflow. This produces a formal management recommendation and a Markdown report for stakeholder distribution and traceability.

What is a BABOK-based risk assessment workflow for project stakeholders?▼

A BABOK-based risk assessment workflow identifies, scores, and documents risks to enable reliable decision-making. It processes 6.1, 6.2, and 4.2 inputs to satisfy stakeholder risk fields and generate sponsor reporting.

Can I run a risk assessment for both small and large initiatives?▼

Yes, you can run risk assessments for both small and large initiatives. The workflow applies to varying project scales, importing stakeholder risk inputs to generate a tailored risk registry and sponsor report.

How do I map mitigation plans and owners to specific project risks?▼

Map mitigation plans and owners by adding risks to the registry with a defined response_strategy. This assigns accountability and generates actionable management recommendations for each identified risk.
