I don’t have an extremely scientific answer for you, other than the fact that in the default matrix scoring I’ve setup for the template, probability has a bigger contribution to the matrix score than impact does. It doesn’t have to be this way – you can adjust these values (don’t forget to examine/update the threshold values as well). The risk register template demonstrates a quantitative ranking system, but the reality is that there aren’t any absolutes – a score of 0.10 for example doesn’t mean anything by itself – it has meaning when compared to other the scores of other risks. The whole idea is to have a system that allows you to rank risks and deal with risks with higher scores before focusing on risks with lower scores.

Thanks for the feedback!

Dear Kuhn,
it was very nice risk register that have been developed. I don’t find the concrete reason for why you chose the value range from 0.10 to 0.90 for probability and 0.05 to 0.80 for impact. Can you make me clear please?

Would love to use your Risk Management Plan with some costmetic changes and some University Specific changes and use this for all projects. I want to give you full credit would you want that displayed on the cover or later on in the Plan?

Thanks
