| ARE ANY RISK
MANAGEMENT TOOLS AVAILABLE? YES! For once we can give an unqualified
answer. There are many tools available, often associated with project management
methodologies.
Many of these are proprietary, and can not be
reproduced or utilised without paying some license fee to the owner. Some
of the site that we mention in the links page have
some tools available. Some at no cost! We were intending to link direct to the
pages with tools, but as these change from time to time, we won't rob you of the
opportunity to do your own research.
One of the most common type of tool is
effectively a checklist of common project risks, which can be used as a catalyst
in risk management workshops.
Another tool is a spreadsheet (either manual or
computerised) to assist in the development of a risk
matrix.
Various government agencies have mandated risk
management methodologies to be used for generic risk management. Many of these
can be used in a project environment with little or no change. The
New
South Wales Treasury created risk management methodology for use by NSW
agencies in 1998/99.
