Sketch a 2 × 2 risk management assessment matrix and discuss the impact of each quadrant

What will be an ideal response?


A risk management assessment matrix, as shown below, classifies identified risks into one of four quadrants on two scales, the likelihood that the risk occurs and the consequences of the occurrence.

A risk designated as low in likelihood and low in consequence may be of little consequence to the project; even if it occurs, it has little impact. A risk low in likelihood but high in consequence is one that must be accommodated; if it does occur it will wreak havoc on budget, schedule, satisfaction, or quality (or all four). A risk that is high in likelihood but low in consequence should be managed as if it will occur and should receive significant contingency planning. A risk that is high in likelihood and consequence is very serious, and merits serious consideration in the form of contingency planning and mitigation efforts.
