Study Notes
Project Risk Management System (PRMS) Maturity and Implementation
- PRM maturity can be categorized into four levels: Mostly unaware, Starting, Growing, and Maturing.
- Level 1 (Mostly Unaware) signifies sporadic, reactive, ad hoc, and inconsistent risk management.
- Level 2 (Starting) occurs when an organization recognizes the need for a more formal risk management approach.
- Level 3 (Growing) involves the establishment of a risk management department within the organization.
- Level 4 (Maturing) indicates radical changes in managing both project and general organizational risks.
- System building for PRMS requires project leaders, champions, and potential specialist help.
- In-house project teams offer the advantage of intimate knowledge of the organization and its risk culture.
- System building tasks involve establishing preferences, creating checklists, adapting management tools, and clarifying analysis justifications.
- Component testing involves individually testing each link in the PRMS chain of processes.
- PRMS trials should follow a cycle, examining stages in pairs and culminating in a full system trial.
- PRMS implementation should start with a low-key roll-out on selected live projects and may require emergency rostering and out-of-work-hours communication.
- PRMS performance review relies on staff feedback and subjective opinion, while internal benchmarking observes the system's performance across projects.
