It is important to identify the widest range of risks, arising from all aspects of the environment, as an unmanaged risk could pose a major threat to the organisation.
Examine all sources of risk from the perspectives of all stakeholders, both internal and external. Each source needs to be identified so that your analysis can consider the contribution each makes to the likelihood and the consequences of the risk.
You can identify risks through:
audits or physical inspections
brainstorming
decision trees
examining local or overseas experience
expert judgment
flow charting, system design review, systems analysis
history, failure analysis
incidents or complaints
interviews/focus groups
operational modelling
organisational experience
personal experience
scenario analysis
SWOT Analysis
survey or questionnaire
systems engineering techniques, e.g. Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) studies
work breakdown structure analysis.
