9.3.1 Prime Value Method to Prioritize Risk Handling Strategies

Funding for implementing risk handling strategies typically is allocated according to either the risk‐averse approach (the worst risk first) or the cost‐effective approach (the greatest risk reduction per implementation dollar first). This paper introduces a prime value approach in which risk handling strategies are prioritized according to how nearly they meet the goals of the organization that disburses funds for risk handling. The prime value approach factors in the importance of the project in which the risk has been identified, elements of both risk‐averse and cost‐effective approaches, and the time period in which the risk could happen. This paper also presents a prioritizer spreadsheet, which employs weighted criteria to calculate a relative rank for the handling strategy of each risk evaluated.
