Technical Program:
Implementing Qualitative
Project Risk Management
Abstract: Everyone can remember that one perfect, flawless project, right? No? Neither can the authors. Projects are messy and challenging, full of risks that threaten its schedule and budget. Risk management is a critical component to project success, yet so many project teams and organizations fail to put it into practice. If an organization has no formal risk program or is early in its implementation, project risk management can be inconsistent and often ineffective. This paper explores various strategies to implement qualitative risk management on any project, discover how qualitative risk management can be injected into typical project processes without consuming significant resources or budget and develop strategies for continued use throughout the project life cycle and for historical management. These project-level implementation strategies can later evolve to quantitative risk management at the project level and formal enterprise level programs. Finally, the authors discuss common hurdles project teams experience with risk management implementation and solutions to prevent or overcome these challenges.
Speakers:
Jessica has been a member of AACE since 2013 and
very active in the Planning & Scheduling Technical Subcommittee, as both
chair and RP coordinator. She is now a full member of the Technical Board. She
was instrumental in performing a very detailed gap analysis between planning
& scheduling related recommended practices and the TCM Framework. For this
gap analysis, Jessica developed a procedure and gathered volunteers to review
all existing RPs related to scheduling. This process and worksheets have been
adopted by the Technical Board and presented to other technical subcommittees. She
is a presenter/author of technical papers at the Conference & Expo and has
been published in Cost Engineering journal. She has previously been
recognized by AACE with the TCM Excellence Award (2020). Jessica is the
Director of Project Risk at Allan Myers.
