Check Items
Have all potential risks to the project been identified
Have you identified anything that can be on the path to the project sucess? List all potential risks, giving a description and type (direct or indirect). See Concept: Risk for more information.
What is the probability of happening and impact of each risk
Determine the probability of the risk happening and its impact on the project. This gives you the order of magnitude of risks (probability x impact), allowing you to address the high magnitude risks early in the project. See Concept: Risk for more information.
Is there a mitigation strategy for each risk

Propose a mitigation strategy for each identified risk. You can either transfer the risk, avoid it, accept it or mitigate it (by minimazing the probability of happening or impact that the risk brings to the project). See Concept: Risk Management for more information.
