About Risk Categories

Risk Categories are a group of risk outcomes. RiskyProject calculates risk probabilities, impacts and scores for each category. The default risk categories are:

• Duration
• Cost
• Safety
• Environment
• Legal
• Performance
• Technology

RiskyProject calculates the score and rank for all risks in each risk category. You can view risk scores and rankings for each risk category or for all categories.

You can customize the risk categories in the Risk Outcomes dialog box.

The set of risk outcome types are different for qualitative and quantitative risk analysis. For quantitative risk analysis, RiskyProject automatically adds a number of schedule-specific risk outcomes, such as restart task, fixed cost increase, etc.
