Abstract

Risks and opportunities in project management refer to potential events or uncertainties that could impact the successful completion of a project. Risks can come from a variety of sources, including internal factors (such as project team performance), external factors (such as changes in the market or regulatory environment), and technical factors (such as changes in technology or equipment). Effective risk management is an important part of project management and involves identifying potential risks, assessing their likelihood and impact, developing response plans, and monitoring and adjusting the response plans as needed. By proactively addressing risks and opportunities, project managers can improve the chances of project success and minimize the impact of risks on the project.

Introduction

Risks and Opportunities

“Risk is exposure to the consequences of uncertainty“

In order to go through and define project risk management, firstly it is necessary to understand what risks and opportunities stand for within the scope of project management. These two concepts are described by at least three basic characteristics: an uncertain event, a probability of occurrence and potential impacts on the project’s objectives (time, cost, quality, scope or performance). What differentiates risks and opportunities is the type of impact they have on the project, in case one of these occurs. In a general point of view, risks may cause a negative impact on one project (recognized possible loss), as opportunities may positively impact it (recognized possible gain). As so, there is a level of uncertainty associated with the occurrence of a risk or opportunity event (probability < 1), it is possible to identify what event is it (known events) and its impact on the organization can be quantified.
