Internal Information Services Risk Management Team Gay Infanti/John Driessnack Northrop Grumman 3 May 2005

2 Agenda New charter Execution plan and schedule Plan will address prior working group’s recommendations in three areas: policy, process, and training Objectives for this team Notional schedule Membership

3 Charter Develop and recommend integrating techniques, policy, guidance, and training to support the integration of risk management with earned value management. Work with the risk management community to achieve process integration.

4 Policy Previous team recommended policy changes, along with implementing guidance, to identify benefits of integration and remove barriers such as lack of management commitment, internal/external culture, and emotional Objectives Review existing EVM policy, standards, and guidance to identify where risk management is/could be addressed Identify existing risk management policy, standards and guidance to identify where process integration is/could be addressed Perform a gap analysis and identify opportunities for New policy/guidance (to ensure achievement of integration and benefits thereof) Placement of new guidance Develop and recommend policy/guidance for incorporation into the PM (EVM & RM) body of knowledge using results/recommendations of process sub-team Criteria for successful integration Guidance that addresses how to integrate

5 Process Prior working group identified two process-related issues A need for solutions, i.e., guidance for how to integrate risk management and EVM A major organizational barrier to process integration RM and EVM usually have different process owners RM and EVM usually have different process champions Objectives Reach out and partner with other communities to create the demand for process integration through cross-functional cooperation and to develop solutions Involve PMI and INCOSE Risk SIGs to gain cooperation Involve Tool suppliers to encourage implementation Develop process solutions to facilitate integration Pilot proposals with programs, gain feedback on usefulness Encourage criteria based risk process similar to Earned Value

6 Training Previous team recommended training improvement to overcome: Barriers associated with lack of process maturity and lack of knowledge/skills needed to achieve process integration Perception that EVM is a financial tool, rather than a PM tool; both EVM and RM are core program management processes Lack of understanding of the benefits available from RM and EVM integration Lack of techniques and tools for achieving process integration Objectives Survey trainers within both communities to identify how the other addresses the EV or RM process within their curriculum Identify the gaps in the training of both processes Identify the areas within each process where process integration should be addressed, again using process sub-teams results Recommend training improvements to address the integration of EV and RM
