Conduct Preliminary Impact Assessment of Risks Identified
The two main components of risk analysis are impact and probability. To categorize and prioritize risks, it is common to compare impact and likelihood since some risks can seriously impact a project’s objectives but occur only rarely. In contrast, others can have a moderate impact and happen more often. It is possible to define risk events’ qualitative and quantitative impact based on the objectives like cost, schedule, quality, scope, health, safety, and more. This is where, Qualityze Risk Management can help. The system has five levels of impacts; Insignificant, Minor, Moderate, Major, Catastrophic, that are indicative of the impacts. One risk event can impact several objectives, which is why it is important to take into account the results of all the possible objectives involved for preliminary impact assessment of risks.
With Qualityze Risk Management, you can plan and conduct preliminary impact assessment of the risks identified in hassle-free and error-free manner.
Identify and Implement the Risk Treatment(s)
All risk treatment options may not be cost-effective or even desirable in most cases. However, a combination of risk treatments must be selected, prioritized, and implemented. Organizations select treatment options based on their advantages, disadvantages, effectiveness, and other factors of relevance to them. Various factors, such as the law, society, politics, and economics, may also have to be considered. Different criteria may be applied when developing treatment options for safety-related risks. This is exactly what Qualityze Risk Management helps you do. You can develop and implement different treatment options to minimize the impact of highest severity. The system allows your quality managers to define mitigation strategies, preventive plans and contingency plans to treat risks proactively.
