• What is the purpose of a risk response plan? As humans, there is always a possibility of experiencing risk one way or the other. That is to say, some risk can be anticipated and can be captured in the company’s budget, while some I assume may be come unannounced but the important thing is that, there’s always a way out to avoid, transfer or defer the identified risk.

Risks arise from uncertainty, and the successful project manager is the one who focuses on this as their primary concern. Most of the issues that impact a project result in one way or another from risk. A good project manager can lessen risk significantly, often by adhering to a policy of open communication, ensuring every significant participant has an opportunity to express opinions and concerns.

Risk identification, focuses on identifying which risks will affect a project, by looking at the project plan, the work breakdown structure, the project charter and other project related documents (PMBOK, 2008). Broad risk categories are human resources, technology changes, quality and performance issues, customers, vendors, management, funding, political, legal, market forces and environmental issues (PMBOK, 2008). Risk identification involves forward and creative thinking by project stakeholders (Hilson, 2003). Risk identification, should be done on a continuous basis and project team members and stakeholders should look for new issues that may affect the success of the project (Brewer & Dittman, 2009). It is impossible to eliminate risk regardless of detailed planning for a project. Project managers need to identify and analyze potential risk associated with a project. As Fleming (2005), indicated project managers need to look at the triple constraints of time, budget, resources, as well as quality to identify areas of risk.
A project may be defined as a one-shot, time-limited, goal-directed, major undertaking, requiring the commitment of varied skills and resources. A project has also been described as "a combination of human and nonhuman resources pulled together in a temporary organization to achieve a specified purpose." A project has a single set of objectives, and when these objectives are reached, the project is completed. Therefore, a project has a finite and well-defined life span. In addition, management must have a very clear idea as to what these objectives are so that there can be no question as to when the project is completed.

A successful project manager ensure that an organization’s resources are being used both efficiently and effectively. Most projects need to be uniquely developed require a sense of customization and the ability to adapt to any posed challenges. The scope of effective project management includes defining what the project is and what is being expected to be accomplished. Projects are imposed to fulfill a certain need and project managers must have the ability to create the proper definition. Goals and the means used to attain those goals have to be clearly stated. Project Managers must also have the ability to plan
Risk is an integral part of project management. It is therefore essential to put in place a risk management plan from the very beginning of the project's launch. One important origin of the risk management is the planning. The planning requires assessing the main risks and opportunities that may arise over the life cycle of the project in order to predict their impacts and to define appropriate strategies to minimize negative consequences and maximize opportunities. It is important to focus attention on risk management in most projects in order to achieve project objectives under predetermined conditions (Liu, 2013).
This paper will reflect on the different uses of Project Risk Management and ways in which it can benefit organizations to have the ability to identify potential problems prior to the problem occurring. Risk, this is not something to be taken lightly whilst dealing with matters that include high end projects meeting specific details, deadlines and expectations for the end client. Project risk management teaches one to be aggressive early on in the phases of planning and implementing the tools for a project. This is usually easier as costs are less and the turnaround time to solve the issues at that present moment is beneficial rather than later. The result in a successful project for one’s self and other key people involved in the process is also another requirement. Stakeholder satisfaction is important because the
Risk Management allows us to identify the problems which are unknown during the start of the project but may occurs later. Implementing an efficient risk management plan will ensure the better outcome of the project in terms of cost and time.
