Assessing and managing risk is a key element of project management. BSI publishes standards and publications that offer practical advice in managing risk within projects of all types and sizes.
This British Standard, a part of the BS 6079 series, provides guidance on the identification and control of business related risks encountered when undertaking projects. It is applicable to a wide spectrum of project organizations operating in the industrial, commercial and public or voluntary sectors. It is written for project sponsors and project managers, either or both of whom are almost always responsible to higher levels of authority for one or more projects of various types and sizes.
