Explanation

Risk handling strategies should be reviewed and revised periodically to ensure they remain effective and relevant as the project progresses. This allows the project manager to adapt to changing circumstances and minimize the impact of risks on the project. According to the PMBOK?Guide, risk handling strategies are the specific actions that are taken to implement the risk response plan. The risk response plan is the output of the Plan Risk Responses process, which describes how the project team intends to address the identified risks. The risk handling strategies should be aligned with the risk response strategies, which are the general approaches to deal with the risks, such as avoid, transfer, mitigate, accept, exploit, share, enhance, or accept. The project manager should work with the risk handling strategies by reviewing and revising them periodically. This is because the project risks are not static, but dynamic and uncertain. They may change over time due to various factors, such as changes in the project scope, schedule, cost, quality, resources, stakeholder expectations, assumptions, constraints, etc. Therefore, the project manager should monitor and control the risk handling strategies to ensure that they are still effective and appropriate for the current risk situation. The project manager should also update the risk register and the risk report with the results of the risk handling strategies, such as the residual risks, secondary risks, and risk triggers.
