Though, this is a bit risky as the process is very important in any project. The need for the risk management process is to prevent the future risks that could affect this project. The risk management process involves the identification, analyzing, the planning and the control of the potential risks. The risk was considered unnecessary due to various reasons.

1. Do the companies need to ask for a risk management proposal? I believe risk management should be taken into account when putting together the bid. If you the bidder does not know the risks, how can they adequately plan for how these risks will affect their budget, timeline, and scope?

Does the customer have the right to expect the contractor to perform risk analysis and develop a risk management plan if it is not called out as part of the contractual statement of work?

Company Pronouns When referring to an entity (like a company, government agency, or a country), use the pronouns “that” or “it.” Entities are not people, so it is incorrect to use “who” or “they” or "their" when referring to them. If using "it" and "that" sounds awkward rewrite the sentence and use the entities name instead. For additional information see:
