Risk Management is the systematic process of understanding, evaluating and addressing the risks. It is a continuous process that is an important part of project management. Risk handling activities may be planned and invoked as needed across the life of the product or project.

The objectives of Risk Management Process are:

• Defining Risk Management – which includes Risk Sources and Categories.

Outputs

• Risk Management Plan
• Risk Log
• Risk Status Report
