Risk Response and Reporting

Walter is the project manager for a large construction project. He will work with several vendors on the project. Vendors will supply materials and labor for several parts of the project. Because some project work is very dangerous, Walter has established safety requirements for all vendors and for his own project team. Project stakeholders have introduced new requirements, creating new project risks. A vendor has identified a new risk that could affect the project if it occurs. Walter agrees with the vendor, has updated the risk register, and has created potential risk responses to mitigate the risk. Considering the risk event, what else should Walter update in this scenario?

  • A Project management plan
  • B Project communications plan
  • C Project contractual relationship with the vendor
  • D Project scope statement
Explanation

Planning risk responses may require updates to the project management plan and its relevant subsidiary plans or baselines, because mitigation actions can affect project work, resources, costs, schedule, quality, procurement, or scope. PMI identifies project management plan updates as an output of Plan Risk Responses.
