NEW QUESTION 449
You are the project manager of RFT project. You have identified a risk that the enterprise's IT system and application landscape is so complex that, within a few years, extending capacity will become difficult and maintaining software will become very expensive. To overcome this risk, the response adopted is re- architecture of the existing system and purchase of new integrated system. In which of the following risk prioritization options would this case be categorized?
- A. Deferrals
- B. Contagious risk
- C. Business case to be made
- D. Quick win
Answer: C
Explanation:

Answer: C
NEW QUESTION 454
What are the various outputs of risk response?
- A. Project management plan and Project document updates
- B. Explanation:
The outputs of the risk response planning process are: Risk Register Updates: The risk register is written in detail so that it can be related to the priority ranking and the planned response. Risk Related Contract Decisions: Risk related contract decisions are the decisions to transmit risk, such as services, agreements for insurance, and other items as required. It provides a means for sharing risks. Project Management Plan Updates: Some of the elements of the project management plan updates are: Schedule management plan Cost management plan Quality management plan Procurement management plan Human resource management plan Work breakdown structure Schedule baseline Cost performance baseline Project Document Updates: Some of the project documents that can be updated includes: Assumption log updates Technical documentation updates - C. Risk-related contract decisions
- D. Residual risk
- E. Risk register updates
- F. Risk Priority Number
Answer: A,B,C,E
Explanation:
is incorrect. Residual risk is not an output of risk response. Residual risk is the risk that remains after applying controls. It is not feasible to eliminate all risks from an organization. Instead, measures can be taken to reduce risk to an acceptable level. The risk that is left is residual risk. As, Risk = Threat Vulnerabilityand Total risk = Threat Vulnerability Asset Value Residual risk can be calculated with the following formula: Residual Risk = Total Risk - Controls Senior management is responsible for any losses due to residual risk. They decide whether a risk should be avoided, transferred, mitigated or accepted. They also decide what controls to implement. Any loss due to their decisions falls on their sides. Residual risk assessments are conducted after mitigation to determine the impact of the risk on the enterprise. For risk assessment, the effect and frequency is reassessed and the impact is recalculated. Answer: A is incorrect. Risk priority number is not an output for risk response but instead it is done before applying response. Hence it act as one of the inputs of risk response and is not the output of it.

The levels within a capability maturity model are designed to allow an enterprise to identify descriptions of its current and possible future states. In general, the purpose is to: Identify, where enterprises are in relation to certain activities or practices. Suggest how to set priorities for improvements - D. Decision tree model
- E. Simulation tree model
Answer: B
Explanation:
is incorrect. There is no such model exists in risk management process. Answer:B is incorrect. Decision tree analysis is a risk analysis tool that can help the project manager in determining the best risk response. The tool can be used to measure probability, impact, and risk exposure and how the selected risk response can affect the probability and/or impact of the selected risk event. It helps to form a balanced image of the risks andopportunitiesconnected with each possible course of action. This makes them mostly useful for choosing between different strategies, projects, or investment opportunities particularly when the resources are limited. A decision tree is a decision support tool that uses a tree-like graph or model of decisions and their possible consequences, including chance event outcomes, resource costs, and utility. Answer:C is incorrect. Fishbone diagrams or Ishikawa diagrams shows the relationships between the causes and effects of problems.
