Risk management consultancy and training services

Managing Risk in Projects Short Course – Online – Commence Anytime

We constantly see reports in the news of projects where budgets have blown out significantly or schedules extended dramatically. We have also witnessed trains delivered that don’t fit inside tunnels; bridges that collapse before commissioning; payroll systems that fail to work effectively, despite a blowout of 1200% in budget.

What do each of these have in common?

A failure to effectively integrate the management of risk into the planning and execution of the Project.

During the Managing Risk in Projects workshop, participants will be guided through the following:

  • Risk management definitions
  • The risk management environment for projects
  • Integrating project risk management into the management of enterprise risk
  • A comprehensive understanding of each element of the ISO AS/NZS 31000 process and its application to Project risks
  • Developing a contingency budget based on residual risk
  • Managing issues during the project

Participants will be guided through the risk management process using real-world examples. In doing so, participants will be able to relate the workshop content to their own workplace.

Participants will receive the following resources:

  • A 4-hour video presentation
  • An example Project Risk Management Procedure (for the overarching project risk management program)
  • An example Project Risk Management Plan for a specific project
  • A comprehensive list of risks for different types of project
  • An indicative risk register for an IT project
