What is Risk? A risk is defined as a future event, that can be either an opportunity or threat, that could occur and has a direct impact on the success of a program or project Event The things that may happen sometime in the future that will trigger an opportunity
- r threat
Opportunity Benefit to our ability to deliver the program or project and achieve an objective Threat Detriment to our ability to deliver the program or project and achieve an objective
Five Recognized Steps:
- 1. Plan for Risk
- 2. Identify Risk
- 3. Analyze and Prioritize the Risks
- 4. Plan and Execute Response Strategies
- 5. Monitor, Evaluate & Adjust
A failure to plan…is a plan to fail! Identify the context Product – The Scope Statements will document the extent of Risk Management on each project
Plan for Risk Identify Risks Prioritize Assessed Risks Plan and Execute Response Strategies Monitor, Evaluate and Adjust Communication and Consultation occur at each step Analyze the Risks Assess Risk Probability Assess Risk Impact
For each identified Risk, ask the following:
- What are the possible risks to the project?
- What are possible benefits to the project?
- What are the challenges/barriers to the project?
Plan for Risk Identify Risks Prioritize Assessed Risks Plan and Execute Response Strategies Monitor, Evaluate and Adjust Communication and Consultation occur at each step Analyze the Risks Assess Risk Probability Assess Risk Impact
Product – Risk Statements are documented within the Risk Register
What events could affect the project?
- Impacts?
- Likelihood?

Product – Each Risk Statement will be analyzed and documented within the Risk Register
- Use Matrix on previous slide to determine criticality (or
lack thereof) of risk statements – relative status
- Product – Each Risk Statement, once analyzed, will be
prioritized within the Risk Register Product – Each Risk Statement, once analyzed, will be prioritized within the Risk Register

For each threat the response strategy is to: For each opportunity the response strategy is to:
- Avoid
- Accept
- Mitigate
- Transfer

Constructability & Risk Relationship
Time-driven Performance Risks
- Agencies controlled by funding and
political commitment deadlines
- Designers judged by performance of
deliverables
- Construction contracts governed by
milestones, performance windows and time-of-the-essence clauses
Transportation Project Special Risk Factors
- Cost/Schedule are driven by how something is
constructed versus what is constructed
- Public in, around and through the construction
site
- Restricted work windows and work zones
- Maintenance and protection of traffic – work
zone safety for the public and construction crews
Risk Management Tools & Process
Can be performed at any stage, concept thru construction!
- Risk Register
- Constructability Reviews
- Value Engineering Reviews
Risk Constructability Common Elements
Multidiscipline Teams:
- Architects, Engineers, Construction Managers
- Procurement: Contract options, funding, legal
- Specialists: Environmental, HAZOPS, Police, etc.
- Operations Personnel: Maintenance, plant engineers
- Contractors: Means & Methods, MOT/MPT, etc.
FDOT – Miami Intermodal Center
Example 1
Combined RM/VE Workshop FDOT MIA-MIC
Example 1
NYSDOT – Work Zone Safety Initiative
DOT HQ - Review Region Projects
- Tech Design Not Reviewed
- Maintenance of Traffic Only
- Review Work Zone Layouts
- Review Work Windows
- Review Traffic Alternatives
- Review Work Flows
- No Costs Considered
Example 2
NYSDOT – Work Zone Safety Initiative
Workshop Teams:
- DOT HQ Construction Managers
- FHWA Construction Managers
- State/Local Police
- Contractors
- Specialty Consultants – Traffic, IT, etc.
Example 2
Goal to reduce risk by improving worker and public safety.
Take-Away Points
- Everything involves risk – risk cannot be
eliminated, but it can be managed
- RM documents (risk register, etc.) are not end
products – they are tools to be used throughout the life of a project. They are tools to help manage risk
- Value Engineering and Constructability Reviews
are processes to help manage risk
Example 2
Integration of Risk Management at NJDOT
Objectives
- Identifying risks early = opportunity to manage the
risk
- Reduction in design changes and scope = cost
savings
- Quality contract documents = enhanced project
success
Current Practice
- Project Managers, Designers & SMEs are performing
informal project risk management without consistent procedures or practices and without consistent documentation
- Project Managers, Designers & SMEs are performing
project risk management without coordination of effort
- Risks may be identified, but may not actually lead to
implementation of response actions
Formal Risk Management
- Risk Management will occur from Problem
Screening through Construction
- Risk Management will be scalable
- Coordinated effort
- Central and Accessible Repository
- Compatible with the Capital Project Delivery
process and CPD activities
Leverage current best practices: Interactive Communications Design Communications Report (DCR) with Future State: Formal and structured process allowing for opportunity to mitigate threats or embrace opportunities on projects
Formal Risk Management
Benefits
- Risks are formally documented and evaluated so the Project
Team does not manage by crisis when a risk is realized
- Allows for prioritization of high probability and high impact
risks
- Enhances communication between the Project Team and
encourages a robust and diverse exchange of ideas and solutions
- Strategy can be tracked and monitored for effectiveness
Next Steps
- Risk Management Process Pilot Program
- Monitor the Process for Refinement
- Implementation with Training
