Explanation
The Probability and Impact Matrix is a tool used in the Perform Qualitative Risk Analysis process. It maps the probability of each risk occurring against its impact on project objectives, allowing the project team to prioritize risks by severity (high/medium/low). Qualitative Risk Analysis is a fast, low-cost way to assess and prioritize risks subjectively before deciding whether deeper quantitative analysis is needed. Quantitative Risk Analysis uses numerical methods (e.g., Monte Carlo simulation) and does not use this matrix as a primary tool. Plan Risk Responses and Monitor/Control Risks occur after risks have already been assessed.
