The risk management methodology identified in this document will be primarily used by the PPW Company project team and it will be used during the entire project. The vendor’s risk management methodology will be provided as a contractual deliverable and they will develop their own separate Risk Management Plan. The vendor will be responsible for managing their project risks and reporting any such risks to the project team.
