Q1. Write a note on Process Maturity Model.
Answer. Description of Process Maturity:
Process maturity is an indication of how close a developing process is to being complete and capable of continual improvement through qualitative measures and feedback. Thus, for a process to be mature, it has to be complete in its usefulness, automated, reliable in information and continuously improving.
The maturity of a process or activity can be defined to be at one of five levels, from Level 1 (the least mature) to level 5 (the most mature). The processes at higher levels also address the features of the lower levels. The

Q2. Explain the steps involved in performing risk analysis.
Answer. Step 1: Identify the hazards
First you need to work out how people could be harmed. When you work in a place every day it is easy to overlook some hazards, so here are some tips to help you identify the ones that matter:
·         Walk around your workplace and look at what could reasonably be expected to cause harm.
·         Ask your employees or their representatives what they think. They may have noticed things that are not immediately obvious to you. For information on how you can do this please visit our worker involvement pages.

Q4. Explain the six risk management tools.
Answer. The following diagram illustrates the six steps of the risk management process: identify, analyze and prioritize, plan and schedule, track and report, control, and learn. It is important to understand that the process of managing each risk goes through all of these steps at least once and often cycles through numerous times. Also, each risk has its own timeline, so multiple risks might be in each step at any

4. Track and report - Risk tracking monitors the status of specific risks and the progress in their respective action plans. Risk tracking also includes monitoring the probability, impact, exposure, and other measures of risk for changes that could alter priority or risk plans and ultimately the availability of the service. Risk reporting ensures that the operations staff, service manager, and other stakeholders are aware of the status of top risks and the plans to manage them.

Q5. Assess how and why change fails and analyse the reasons for resistance to change.
Answer. Despite the potential positive outcomes, change is nearly always resisted. A degree of resistance is normal since change is:
·         Disruptive, and
·         Stressful
Kotter and Schlesinger identified four key reasons why change is resisted:

Parochial self


Q6. Analyse the event chain methodology.
Answer. Introduction
In the initial stages of a project, complex processes and the many risks involved makes it impossible to accurately model. A model of a project is necessary for efficient project management.
Event Chain Methodology, an improbable modelling and schedule network analysis technique, is a solution to this problem. This technique is used to manage events and event chains that influence project schedules.
