Future-proofing infrastructure projects through risk management

The quality of the risk management undertaken by those who commission infrastructure projects and those bidding to deliver on those projects, will often determine whether the project turns out to be a success or a failure.

A well planned and structured infrastructure project ought to deliver value that optimises the project benefits (for the commissioning party) and that optimises project returns (for the developer).

It can only do this if the risks associated with the project are properly identified, assessed and managed.

In a recent presentation to the 2nd Annual Utilities and Infrastructure Conference, partner Stephen Revill outlined:

  • risk identification, risk assessment and the different techniques that can be used to maximise the benefits of those processes;

  • different approaches to risk allocation and risk mitigation strategies; and

  • the context for risk management in different phases of an infrastructure project's life cycle.
