Postmortem Plan

Complete Section 5 – Postmortem Plan and Section 6 – References of the risk management plan by developing the results, conclusion, and follow up for your chosen case study or work project.

Evaluating results and working toward improvements are necessary for continual process improvement. This is an important part of every company’s risk planning and quality process.

To make process improvements in risk management and quality planning, you must collect and evaluate data. A risk management auditing process will determine whether there are areas that should be specifically evaluated for improvement.

The Risk Management Plan documents the results, conclusion, follow-up activities, and corrective actions for the project postmortem plan. The information from the postmortem pan informs future continual process improvement. Postmortem activities include determining the benefits of different risk management strategies and elements for future application.
