Global Risks
Global risks are those risks which have a chance of affecting the project as a whole and are not limited to specific tasks or resources. For example, a change in requirements would be considered a global risk.
To create global risks:
1. Open the Global Risk view.
2. Click on Risk Name field and type in the name of the risk.
3. Define the risk:
- Assigned – a risk can be assigned as either a resource or task.
- Chance – the probability that the risk event will occur.
- Outcome – the result when the risk event occurs
- Result – the outcomes quantitative effect or the task or resource.
- Distribution – define the distribution of the risk using a start, most likely and finish as a function of the duration of the task. If the distribution is Uniform then you do not have to define the previous parameters.
4. To apply a global risk to the project, select the check box located to the right of the Risk Name field.
Note:
When you define new risk, default risk properties (chance, outcome, etc.) will be taken from Options dialog Risk Tab.
