Risk Management Framework
1. Risk Identification
Description: This section outlines the techniques and tools used to identify potential risks.
Methods:

Expert Interviews: Consulting with industry experts to identify risks.
Historical Data Analysis: Reviewing past projects to identify common risks.
Risk Checklists: Utilizing pre-defined checklists for typical risks in technology development projects.
2. Risk Assessment
Description: This section details the process for evaluating identified risks.
Assessment Criteria:
Likelihood: The probability of the risk occurring (e.g., Low, Medium, High).
Impact: The potential effect on the project if the risk occurs (e.g., Low, Medium, High).
Risk Matrix:
Likelihood \ Impact | Low Impact | Medium Impact | High Impact |
|---|
Low Likelihood | Minor scope creep | | |
Medium Likelihood | | Delay in hardware delivery | Security vulnerabilities |
High Likelihood | | | Non-compliance with regulatory standards |
3. Risk Mitigation Strategies
Description: This section outlines actions to minimize or eliminate identified risks.
Mitigation Strategies:
Risk Description | Mitigation Action | Responsible Party | Timeline |
|---|
Minor scope creep | Define project scope clearly and document changes. | Project Manager | Ongoing |
Delay in hardware delivery | Engage multiple suppliers to ensure timely delivery. | Procurement Team | Before hardware development |
Security vulnerabilities | Conduct regular security assessments and integrate security testing. | Quality Assurance Team | During development |
Failure to meet regulatory standards | Consult with legal experts to ensure compliance with regulations. | Compliance Officer | Ongoing |
4. Monitoring and Reporting
Description: This section describes the ongoing oversight of risk management activities.
Monitoring Procedures:
Regular risk assessment meetings every two weeks.
Status reports on risk management activities to be shared with stakeholders.
Updates to the risk register as new risks are identified or existing risks are mitigated.
Reporting: Monthly reports detailing risk status and mitigation efforts will be presented to project stakeholders via email and during project meetings.
Roles and Responsibilities
Description: This section outlines the roles involved in the risk management process.
Role | Responsibilities |
|---|
Project Manager | Overall responsibility for risk management. |
Risk Manager | Facilitation of risk identification and assessment. |
Quality Assurance Team | Ensure that quality standards are maintained throughout the project. |
