Registering risks in Share point
 The essential purpose of risk management in projects and tenders are to
improve project and tender performance via the systematic and iterative
process designed to identify, analyse, evaluate, and treat project related
risk elements. Risk elements are compiled, recorded and managed
throughout the tender period and project life cycle.

done in tender phase (if available), lessons learned and project risk
assessment methodology
 Ensuring that projects work according to company global risk
management process for projects
 Facilitate risk meetings and co-ordinate risk responses
 Monitor and control that the risk strategies are implemented in a timely
manner
 Coordinate and participate in risk evaluation, development of mitigation
plans, monitor, summarize and report risk status
 Compile record and follow up risks out of tolerance level in the risk
register
 Create a project risk management close out report
 Support projects or tenders with risk analysis (quantification and /or
