Start with the work ahead
Run a QuickScan when the project begins. Bring the team together around the main objectives, dependencies and possible disruptions. Add detail where exposure calls for it.
For Project and Programme Managers
Plans change as projects move. RISkatch gives project and programme managers a shared place to see what could affect delivery, agree actions and follow their impact on cost, time, quality and performance.
RISkatch
A project plan sets direction, yet delivery depends on suppliers, people, contracts and decisions that can change. Project managers need to know which uncertainties threaten cost, timing and quality. Programme managers also need to see risks shared by several projects. A current view of ownership and action helps both roles raise an issue while there is still time to respond.
For Project and Programme Managers
Run a QuickScan when the project begins. Bring the team together around the main objectives, dependencies and possible disruptions. Add detail where exposure calls for it.
Assess likelihood and impact, agree which risks need action and assign each measure to an owner. Keep the decision beside the risk in a shared register.
Use dashboards and reports to follow warning signs, open actions and changing exposure. Programme managers can compare connected projects and bring shared issues to sponsors.
Next step
A supplier delay affects two projects and threatens a programme milestone. The teams record the risk in their own context, assess the consequences and agree actions with named owners. The programme manager can see the combined pressure and ask for one coordinated decision. Later reviews show whether the response is working.
RISkatch gives managers practical handles for regular risk discussions. The register shows what could happen and what the team agreed to do. Dashboards connect the details to delivery goals, so a sponsor receives a useful picture instead of a list of concerns. Teams can adapt the level of analysis as the work develops.
