3 A project management tool. Used to store several project information in one place. Serves as a central repository for all Risks, Assumptions, Issues and Dependencies. Allows keeping track of everything happening in your project. Useful document in regular project meetings and for audit purposes.

4 Benefits: Keeps your project organized and on track. Makes the information easier to store and retrieve. Gives confidence to all project stakeholders that the project is under control and being monitored. Allows to engage with upper management and ask their help where necessary to mitigate a risk or resolve an issue.

5 A Risk is something that will have a negative impact on the project if it happens. It can lead to quality, delay or cost problems. It refers to the combined likelihood that the event will occur and the impact on the project if it occurs. Risks are often ranked by their Risk Priority Numbers (RPNs). A plan should then be developed to mitigate risks with high RPN.

6 Assumptions are those factors that are taken for granted but cannot be guaranteed and may impact the result of the project. E.g. staff availability. Project Issues are incidents that cause the project to become out of alignment. They are risks that have already happened. Dependencies are those activities which need to start or be completed in order for the project to proceed successfully.

7 A good practice is to create a RAID log at the beginning of each project. Then regularly review and update it as necessary through regular project meetings. The log should drive to take the necessary actions in order to ensure successful implementation of the project.

8 RAID Dashboard: A simple way to summarize all the logging. Allows the project manager to review all relevant information related to a project at a glance. R A I D

9 RAID Log Example: RAID Category Description Impact Owner Priority Issue Issue Assumption Risk Assumption Issue Risk Vendor master data is outdated Absence of procurement policies and procedures Complete information is available prior the approval process Long supply delivery time Proper material and service quality inspection Absence of preventive maintenance plan Inability to do required maintenance on time Impact on the project schedule Impact on the project schedule and cost Low Negligible Critical

11 Further Information: Assumptions and dependencies could later be turned into risks when more time is taken to analyze them. Risks and issues, on the other hand, need to be given more attention and to be dealt with decisively. Assumption analysis verifies the assumptions as they are applied to the project. It identifies inaccuracy, instability, inconsistency, or incompleteness of assumptions.
