Explanation

SWOT Analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) is a specific technique used in the Identify Risks process. It examines the project from four perspectives to ensure a broader set of risks are considered - including internal factors (strengths and weaknesses of the organization) and external factors (opportunities and threats in the environment). SWOT Analysis is not used in Define Scope, Plan Risk Management, or Plan Risk Responses. It belongs squarely in Identify Risks, which is the process of determining which risks may affect the project and documenting their characteristics.
