Risk distribution chart

The Risk distribution iconrisk distribution chart can be accessed at any of the parent view pagesĀ (e.g. Contact details iconorganisation, Programme iconprogramme, Project iconproject, Subproject iconsub-project, or Change requests iconchange request) via the Risk distribution tab and shows a plot of all the risks on at that level.

Figure 1 – Risk distribution chart

The vertical axis of the chart shows the percentage consequence (impact) a risk will have and the horizontal axis shows the likelihood (probability) that the risk will occur. A disk is plotted where each risk falls against these two axis. If more than one risk falls at a particular point then the disk size increases. The charts background shows a graded colour scale from red through amber to green to help visualise a risk’s overall risk factor.
