BSBPMG508A Manage Project Risk 11.6 Monitor and Control Risks Risk Re-assessment Risk monitoring and control activities often result in the identification of new risks, re-assessment of current risks and the closing of risks that no longer apply. Re-assessment sessions need to be scheduled regularly and risk registers, status reports and risk action plans updated as a result. Risk Audits Examine and document the effectiveness of risk responses. Often combined with Risk Re-assessment activities. Variance and Trend Analysis Compares the planned results of risk responses and action plans to the actual outcomes. Often combined with Risk Re-assessment activities.

Can only be performed if quantifiable measures of technical performance are defined in the Project Management and Risk Management Plans. Reserve Analysis Compares the amount of risk reserves or contingency that remain at any point in time to determine if it is adequate or can be adjusted up or down based on the performance of risk management activities. Status Meetings Project Risk Management and a review of the Risk Register should be on the agenda for all Project Status Meetings. Status Reports Risk ratings and trends should be included in Project Status Reports for the high priority risks.
