Options

  • AA list of realized risks
  • BA list of decomposed activities
  • CA sequenced list of project tasks
  • DA document describing agreed-upon communication methods

Why each option

Risks that have actually occurred are tracked as realized risks in the risk register, not as planned activities or communication logs.

AA list of realized risksCorrect

A list of realized risks (also called the risk register's realized or triggered risks section) documents issues that have materialized during project execution. The datacenter being inaccessible and the team member being on medical leave are both risk events that have already occurred, making them realized risks. Recording them here ensures the project manager can track impacts, initiate responses, and update forecasts accordingly.

BA list of decomposed activities

A list of decomposed activities is part of the work breakdown structure and records tasks, not risk occurrences.

CA sequenced list of project tasks

A sequenced list of project tasks is the project schedule, which orders activities rather than documenting risk events.

DA document describing agreed-upon communication methods

A document describing agreed-upon communication methods defines how the team shares information, not where risk occurrences are recorded.
