This document provides templates and examples for creating a risk management plan, including identifying risks, assessing risks, analyzing risks, developing risk response strategies, creating risk mitigation plans, and tracking risks. The templates include tables for a risk register, risk assessment scoring, risk analysis, risk response matrix, risk mitigation strategies, and risk control matrix. Examples are provided for how to populate each template to develop a comprehensive risk management plan.

associated with a project
basis different types of factors
like cost, time, resources etc.
You can list down the risk
associated with all/ some of
these factors as per your
requirements.

5 days
After five days no way to schedule
production or track orders
No UPS/ generator., MD hardware,
SPOF SME
Use paper reports for 5 days then
go manual for as many members as
possible
Facility 0 days
No production, potential for
bankruptcy, IT non- existent

maintenance, no perimeter security
, door lock broken
Look for warehouse space, attempt
to salvage equipment and restart
operation, file bankruptcy
Personnel 0 days
Degraded operations, low
service levels
Too many SPOF
Best effort shifting of available
staff, temps
Raw Materials 30 days before new deliveries None until on hard exhausted Single supplier relationship Search for alternatives supplier
Transportation System 30 days in 2 days out
No suppliers
No deliveries
Location, design of entrance None
Utilities
0 hours/power
0 hours/water
Extrusion shuts down, lines

of all the risks faced
by the company and
their impact on the
company
performance.

o No or little prior experience or data
o Infrastructure and/or resources not in

Below is a complex version of
analysing the risk level. We
have listed the steps to be
followed in calculating the risk
and its certainty. Using these
steps you can estimate the
risk level associated with your
project/ company.
11
Step 1: Consider
What is the consequence of the hazard occurring. Consider
what is the most possible consequence with respect to work
Extreme
Critical
Major
Minor
Regulatory
Non compliance
Major non
compliance
Warning
Minor non
compliance
Safety at work
Sickness
Casualty
First aid
Medical treatment
Step 3: Calculation Risk
1. Take Step 1 rating and select correct column
2. 2. Take Step 2 rating and select correct row
3. 3. Use the risk score where the two ratings cross on the
matrix below.
H = High, S = Serious, M = Medium, L = Low
Step 2: Consider Likelihood
What is the likelihood of the hazard consequences occurring in
Step1
Almost Is expected to occur in most
Certain Circumstances (once per year)
Likely Will probably occur once (every 5 year)
Possible Event might occur at some time (10years)
Unlikely
/ Rare
Event expected to occur only in
exceptional circumstances (20+ years)

This strategy is used to
reduce the adverse effects
of risk. We have listed
down the three categories
of risk and also the
strategies to be opted to
manage the risk levels. You
can alter these as per your
requirements.
14
15. Mitigation Strategy
Control Strategy
Risk will be tested on a daily basis. The risk owner will
document all avoidance & mitigation efforts. This would
be practiced until the risk level is acceptable or has
been avoided altogether
Risk will be tested on a weekly basis. The risk owner
will document all avoidance & mitigation efforts. This
would be practiced until the risk level is acceptable or
has been avoided altogether
Risk will be tested weekly. No mitigation or avoidance
efforts are necessary unless risk elevates.

Category Identified Risk Mitigation Plan
Client Management
Miscommunication with sponsor/ client regarding
project requirement and expectations
Update client more frequently along the way with
project progress
Server
Server is down which causes project to be slightly
delayed due to application not able to load
Perform periodical check on server status
Technical
Popular web browsers or bootstrap may get an
update that will discontinue support for features
used in our development as we using responsive
bootstrap. This will lead to changes in
development plan and will delay our progress
Monitor any updates on popular web browser and
/ or bootstrap and make sure all UI design works
as intended on updated web browsers or
responsive bootstrap

Once you decide on the
risk mitigation strategy
then you plan to
implement the same.
Below is the table
wherein you can list down
the risk identified and the
mitigation plan to curb
the same.
