Risk management is compulsory in construction; an industry with high failure rates due to persistent failure to recognise and mitigate risk across the construction’s life cycle. Construction risk is any event that on occurring will have negative consequences on the projects in terms of performance, functionality, schedule or cost. Risk is known to be inherent to any construction projects. However, 70-90% of risks encountered on most construction projects are predictable and preventable. Deliberate risk management plan will highlight these problems and will increase the chance of completing a construction project successfully.
Construction project focusing attention to risk is critical in achieving success because change is inevitable. The best planned and managed construction project experience change as the work progresses, potentially creating deviations or significant impact on the initial estimates of time and cost. Thus, the proper thing to do is always to consider risk and to make use of the information gained in the decision process
The Construction Risk Forum is an excellent platform for construction, engineering and project managers to discover more about the principles, techniques, processes, tools and application of risk management in order to minimise risk and maximize opportunities in all phases of construction’s life-cycle.
