Response
Address risks rated based on severity . Very-High-rated risks warrant
the highest priority, and should be addressed before the less severe
classes of risks, and should be tracked until they can be downgraded.
Create a Risk Schedule to address these risks.
In a risk schedule, for every risk identified, preventive actions are
listed that are required to reduce the likelihood of the risk occurring,
as well as the contingent actions needed to reduce the impact to the
project should the risk occur.
