Risk Management Plan

Introduction

In this project, the risk management plan aims to break down and identify the potential risks that might be there for the project. That is why the risk management plan is being developed to respond to those potential risks and manage those risks by ensuring that the project team can mitigate them as we achieve the project’s objectives.

The risk management plan includes an overview of the risk management process, showing the roles and responsibilities of the project team and the risk assessment approach. It is key to be able to identify all the potential risks and as a team be able to develop resolutions for it.

Top Three Risks

The project’s top three risks are:

  1. Technical risks may occur due to delays in the development of the project or technical issues. This may result in issues with the budget and delays in the project timeline as well.
  2. Resource risks may occur when there are insufficient resources that may be needed for further development.
  3. Security Risks may occur when there is a data breach or any other form of hacking of the system.

Risk Management Approach

The risk management approach focuses on quickly identifying the potential risks and composing mitigation plans that are capable of handling and resolving the risks that may occur. All stakeholders will be included in this risk management process as it requires a cooperative approach and contribution from everyone involved.

Risk Identification

The risks identified in the risk assessment were updated and regularly monitored to ensure that they are being managed effectively. Some of the potential risks identified in the risk assessment are listed below:

  1. Technical Risks - There is a risk that the project may be delayed due to technical reasons.
  2. Resource Risks - There is a risk that the project may not have access to enough resources causing a stop of work or adjustments in budget or other delays.
  3. Security Risks - There is a risk of being hacked and having a breach in the system.
  4. Changes in Technology - There is a risk that a change in the industry of technology occurs which may require additional work or resources to adapt.
  5. Human Error - There is a risk that a person may commit a mistake or error that could negatively affect the project.
  6. Unforeseen Circumstances - There is a risk that circumstances such as natural disasters could cause disturbance and impact the project in an unexpected way.

To mitigate these risks, the team has developed a plan which will mitigate all risks and monitor them all in the process to protect the project and avoid all risks.

Risk Monitoring

Risks will always be present, especially during the project’s life cycle which is why it is important to continuously monitor those risks and document the entire process which includes identifying the conditions which may trigger certain risks.

As for the plan, the project manager will incorporate and assign a risk manager to oversee the monitoring process which will help the team to determine if the risks require a higher level of attention in case the risks trigger. The risk manager will provide report updates during team meetings to keep everyone updated.

Furthermore, it should be noted that not only the risk manager should pay attention to any risks around the project, but the entire project team should also remain aware of the identified risks and the potential they have to impact the project which is why everyone is encouraged to help and notify the project manager or risk manager in case new risks occur.

Risk Mitigation and Avoidance

The risk management plan will be created by the team based on the criteria created rating the risks based on their impact and importance. In preparation for those risks, the project team will work alongside stakeholders to put mitigation techniques in place to mitigate the risks.

To accomplish risk mitigation and avoidance the team should identify the potential risks and prioritize what to handle first based on the severity of its impact. Provided below are considerations or options available for the project manager to avoid and mitigate the risks:

  1. Resource Allocation - Guaranteeing that the project has all the required resources is crucial for the project to be successful and efficient which is why resource allocation is important to ensure that the resources are available to the team to finish the project.
  2. Risk Assessment - The team needs to analyze potential risks effectively to anticipate them and immediately apply resolutions.
  3. Contingency Planning - To be prepared for potential risks, the team needs to produce multiple backup plans in case some may not work due to some reason in each scenario.
  4. Contingency Planning - To be prepared for potential risks, the team needs to produce multiple backup plans in case some may not work due to some reason in each scenario.
  5. Communication - It is important for the entire team to be able to communicate clearly and prevent misunderstandings as it has the potential to create risks. Having clear communication between the project team, clients, and stakeholders can help minimize these risks.

Risk Register

The risk register includes a thorough explanation of each risk and its potential effects, as well as the mitigation steps taken. The risk register will be maintained up to date throughout the project to make sure that it reflects the project’s current condition.

Procurement Management Plan

Introduction

A procurement plan is a vital component of any organization's strategic planning process, as it outlines the approach and strategy for acquiring goods, services, or works from external sources. It serves as a roadmap that guides procurement activities, ensuring that the organization obtains the necessary resources efficiently, effectively, and in compliance with relevant regulations and policies.

Villamin Wood and Iron Works will only purchase subscriptions for the system. These subscriptions are for Web Hosting which provides the necessary infrastructure that makes a system accessible, SSL Security which ensures the secure communication between users and the system, and Domain Registration which establishes a unique online identity to the system. These elements will be coming from the platform GoDaddy, which will effectively contribute to the success of the system deployment, and ensure reliability, security, and accessibility for the users.

Procurement Risks

Procurement risks are potential problems that could issues that could potentially harm the project's success come up during the procurement process. To reduce these risks, it is crucial to recognize them and take proactive measures to address their influence over the project.

The Villamin Wood and Iron Works Ordering System project may contain procurement activities that carry risks which are included but not limited to the following:

  1. Subscription Cost changing in the future
  2. Service Provider Server Downtime
  3. Lack of communication and transparency between the team and the vendors, which may lead to misunderstanding.

To lessen the impact of the risks, this plan will include strategies for identifying, evaluating, and reducing risks. Throughout the course of the project, this plan will be continuously reviewed and updated to make sure that risks are recognized and promptly addressed. Furthermore, we'll put into practice strict processes and procedures for reducing the risks involved in procurement management.

Procurement Risk Management

1. Identification of Procurement Risks

The following are the potential risks of the project:

    • Sudden change in the cost of goods and services.
    • Lacking information on the contract’s terms and conditions.
    • Conflict due to misinformation from the team to the vendor about the project.
2. Risk Mitigation Strategies

The following are the strategies that will be implemented:

    • Thorough research into the identity of the company supplier and their goods and services.
    • Conduct meetings as much as possible for communicating reports to clear confusion about the project.
    • Establish clear and fair contract terms and conditions that will protect the company and the project.
    • Regular monitoring throughout the procurement process to ensure that the team will be ready for any emerging risks.
3. Assignment of Responsibilities
Villamin Wood and Iron Works System need clear roles and responsibilities to help ensure accountability, clarity, and effective coordination. It is essential to clearly communicate the assigned responsibilities to all parties involved and ensure that everyone understands their roles and obligations. Regular communication, coordination, and collaboration among the responsible parties contribute to the smooth execution of the procurement plan and successful procurement outcomes.
4. Communication and Reporting
Effective communication and reporting play a crucial role in ensuring transparency, coordination, and accountability throughout the procurement process. Regular and clear communication helps stakeholders stay informed, aligned, and engaged. It enables the exchange of critical information, progress updates, and timely resolution of issues.
This ensures that relevant stakeholders are kept informed about procurement activities, supplier selection processes, contract status, and any potential risks or issues. It will promote collaboration, enable timely decision-making, and provide a platform for addressing concerns, feedback, and suggestions.
5. Continuous Improvement
Continuous improvement is a fundamental aspect of the procurement process, driving efficiency, effectiveness, and innovation. Lessons learned from past procurement experiences will be documented and shared to avoid repeating mistakes and capitalize on best practices.
The procurement plan will emphasize the commitment to continuous improvement as an integral part of the procurement lifecycle, ensuring that the organization remains adaptive, responsive, and proactive in meeting evolving needs and achieving excellence.

Cost Determination

Villamin Wood and Iron Works System’s cost determination is a critical aspect of the procurement process, ensuring that the organization obtains goods or services at the most favorable price while maintaining quality and meeting requirements.

While integration costs cover the price of integrating the system with a subscription, development costs cover the cost of creating software, hardware, testing, and quality assurance. The costs associated with training personnel to use the system effectively are also covered.

This includes conducting thorough cost analysis and maintaining cost transparency and documentation. By employing these strategies, the procurement team can make informed decisions, optimize cost savings, and achieve value for money while procuring goods and services that meet the organization's needs and quality standards.

Overall, the procurement management plan's cost determination section will have a crucial role in ensuring the completion success of Villamin Wood and Iron Works System project within the given budget constraints.

Procurement Constraints

Procurement constraints are inherent limitations and factors that can influence the procurement process and pose challenges to achieving procurement objectives. The following constraints are considered in Villamin Wood and Iron Works Online System project’s procurement process:

  2. Schedule constraints: The project has a strict deadline, so procurement tasks must be finished promptly to keep the project on schedule. Any delays in the procurement process could affect the project's overall schedule and cause it to take longer to complete.
  3. Technology constraints: Villamin Wood and Iron Works Online System requires technical needs and features that will allow customers to view products and services, to be able to order and pay for their products. Additionally, it must have a user-friendly interface that is simple to navigate and open to users with various levels of technical proficiency.
  4. Resource constraints: To ensure that procurement activities can be completed effectively and efficiently, the procurement process must consider the availability of internal resources, such as personnel.
  5. Service Provider’s SLA (Service Level Agreement): This includes the agreement on the allowable Downtime of the Service Provider and scheduled Maintenance.

By recognizing and proactively addressing these constraints, organizations can navigate the procurement landscape more efficiently and effectively, leading to better decision-making, cost optimization, and overall procurement success.

Contract Approval Process

The contract approval process is a critical step in the procurement lifecycle, ensuring that contracts are reviewed, authorized, and executed in accordance with established policies and procedures. GoDaddy, the platform that will be used for the system’s deployment, does not provide contracts, however, they have terms and conditions that companies have to read and understand to prevent issues when purchasing subscriptions.

Decision Criteria

Decision criteria are a set of predefined factors and considerations used to evaluate and make informed decisions in the procurement process. The following are the decision criteria of Villamin Wood and Iron Works Online System project that will be used by the contract review board:

    • Business Needs: The project must be aligned with the company’s business needs, such as increasing operational effectiveness, enhancing customer experience, or an increase in revenue.
    • Pricing: During the decision-making process, the cost of the vendor's suggested solution will be considered. The vendor's pricing should be competitive and reasonable in light of the market analysis and additional proposals received.
  1. Risk Management: The vendor must show that they have a solid grasp of potential risks and mitigation techniques. This includes identifying potential risks associated with projects and procurement.
  2. Technical Requirements: The system must adhere to the organization's technical specifications, which may include compatibility with current systems, security protocols, and industry-specific standards.

The use of clear and well-defined decision criteria promotes consistency, transparency, and accountability in the procurement decision-making process, enabling organizations to make informed choices that yield favorable outcomes.

Performance Metrics for Procurement Activities

The following performance metrics will be used by Villamin Wood and Iron Works Online System project for procurement activities:

1. Vendor Performance Rating
The rating is calculated by giving points to various factors, including the caliber of the good or service, responsiveness, and effectiveness.
2. Customer Satisfaction
Customer satisfaction with the purchasing process, including receptivity, communication, and product and service delivery.
3. Cost Variance
This metric contrasts actual and anticipated costs associated with procurement. To calculate, divide the result by the planned costs after deducting
  the actual costs.

By establishing and monitoring performance metrics, organizations can track their procurement performance, identify areas for improvement, and make data-driven decisions to optimize procurement activities. Performance metrics enable organizations to gauge the value and impact of their procurement efforts, drive continuous improvement, and ensure alignment with strategic objectives.
