What are the Identify Risks?

• *The process of determining which risks may affect the project and documenting their characteristics. 

• **Documentation of existing risks and the knowledge and ability it provides to the project team to anticipate events. 

• This is an iterative process, because new risks may evolve or become known as the project progresses through its life cycle. 

• Tools and techniques used are: ◦ Documentation reviews ◦ Information gathering techniques (Brainstorming, Delphi technique, Interviewing, Root cause analysis) ◦ Checklist analysis ◦ Assumptions analysis ◦ Diagramming techniques (Cause and effect diagrams, System or process flow charts, Influence diagrams) ◦ SWOT analysis ◦ Expert judgment
