Risk Management Plan Project

Risk Management Plan Project

W. Edwards Deming, a historical statistician well known for improving production methods at many mid-20th-century corporations, said the following: “If you can’t describe what you are doing as a process, you don’t know what you’re doing.” Many endeavors are composed of smaller component steps, each of which must be understood and enacted in order to achieve a satisfactory result. Risk management plans, too, depend upon defined processes and steps in order to function effectively.
