John is the project manager of the HGH Project for her company. He and his project team have agreed that if the vendor is late by more than ten days they will cancel the order and hire the NBG Company to fulfill the order. The NBG Company can guarantee orders within three days, but the costs of their products are significantly more expensive than the current vendor. What type of response does John adopt here?

Contingent response strategy
Risk avoidance
Risk mitigation
Expert judgment

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

As in this case John and his team mates have pre-planned the alternative if the vendor would late in placing the order. Therefore, it is contingent response strategy.

Contingent response strategy, also known as contingency planning, involves adopting alternatives to deal with the risks in case of their occurrence. Unlike the mitigation planning in which mitigation looks to reduce the probability of the risk and its impact, contingency planning doesn't necessarily attempt to reduce the probability of a risk event or its impacts. Contingency comes into action when the risk event actually occurs.

Incorrect Answers:
B: Risk avoidance is the method which involves creating solutions that ensure a specific risk in not realized.

C: Risk mitigation attempts to eliminate or significantly decrease the level of risk present. Here no alternatives are pre-planned.

D: Expert judgment is utilized in developing risk responses, including feedback and guidance from risk management experts and those internal to the project qualified to provide assistance in this process.

You will need to involve several of the project's key stakeholders to help you identify and communicate the identified risk events. You will also need several documents to help you and the stakeholders identify the risk events. Which one of the following is NOT a document that will help you identify and communicate risks within the project?

Stakeholder registers
Activity duration estimates
Activity cost estimates
Risk register

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Risk register is not an input to risk identification, but it is an output of risk identification. Incorrect Answers:
A, B, C: These are an input to risk identification.

Identify Risks is the process of determining which risks may affect the project. It also documents risks' characteristics. The Identify Risks process is part of the Project Risk Management knowledge area. As new risks may evolve or become known as the project progresses through its life cycle, Identify Risks is an iterative process. The process should involve the project team so that they can develop and maintain a sense of ownership and responsibility for the risks and associated risk response actions. Risk Register is the only output of this process.

Risk Probability and Impact Assessment: Risk probability assessment investigates the chances of a particular risk to occur.
Risk Impact Assessment investigates the possible effects on the project objectives such as cost, quality, schedule, or performance, including positive opportunities and negative threats.
Probability and Impact Matrix: Estimation of risk's consequence and priority for awareness is conducted by using a look-up table or the probability and impact matrix. This matrix specifies the mixture of probability and impact that directs to rating the risks as low, moderate, or high priority.
Risk Data Quality Assessment: Investigation of quality of risk data is a technique to calculate the degree to which the data about risks are useful for risk management.
Risk Categorization: Risks to the projects can be categorized by sources of risk, the area of project affected and other valuable types to decide the areas of the project most exposed to the effects of uncertainty.
