Project Risks Portlet

You can view a detailed summary of all of the risks to which you have access using the project risks portlet. This portlet displays on the risks page.

This page includes the following columns:

Above Threshold

Displays a yellow check mark to indicate that the risk score has exceeded the risk threshold. The risk threshold is the acceptable level of risk that can be tolerated without acting out the risk response strategy. The threshold is based on the impact and probability factors. This is a system-level value for all projects that the CA Clarity PPM administrator sets. The value for this field is based on the Impact and Probability fields on the risk properties page.

Probability

Displays the probability that the impact occurs in the form of a stoplight. The risk probability is used to calculate the risk exposure.

Stoplights:

• Green. The risk has a low probability of occurring.
• Yellow. The risk has a medium probability of occurring.
• Red. The risk has a high probability of occurring.

Impact

Displays the effect of the particular risk on the project, determined by the risk effect on the project performance, supportability, cost, and schedule. This risk impact is used to calculate the risk exposure.

Stoplights:

• Green. This risk has a low impact on the project.
• Yellow. This risk has a medium impact on the project.
• Red. This risk has a high impact on the project.

Risk ID

Displays the unique identifier assigned to the risk for tracking.
