Explanation

Perform Quantitative Risk Analysis is the process of numerically analyzing the effect of identified risks on overall project objectives. It assigns numerical probability and impact values to risks and uses techniques such as Monte Carlo simulation, decision tree analysis, and sensitivity analysis to quantify overall project risk exposure. This contrasts with Perform Qualitative Risk Analysis, which prioritizes risks based on their probability and impact using subjective or descriptive scales (high/medium/low) rather than numerical models. Identify Risks focuses on documenting potential risks, and Monitor and Control Risks tracks and responds to risks throughout the project.
