Compare Owner and Consensus Values

Compare what the owner thinks about the risks to what the rest of the team thinks.

In order to do so, you must run risk analysis twice; once with the owner results and once with the consensus results.

To compare owner and consensus values, complete the following steps:

  1. Import the consensus version of the risk register into Acumen. It makes no different whether you import the owner or consensus risk register first.
  2. Select the S3 // Risk tab.
  3. In the Views menu, click Left Panel > Activities.
  4. In the Views menu, click Right Panel > Risk Register.
  5. Using both panels, map activities to risks.
  6. In the Analysis menu, click Run Risk Analysis. After the analysis completes, the right-pane displays a risk histogram.
  7. In the Views menu, click Right Panel > Risk Comparison. The Risk Comparison chart displays the consensus curve.
  8. Optional. In the right pane, on the Curves tab in the Name column, rename the scenario.
  9. Import the owner version of the risk register (or consensus version if you first imported the owner version).
  10. A message displays asking if you want to keep the mappings. Click Yes if you don't want to remap activities to risks.
  11. In the Analysis menu, click Run Risk Analysis.
  12. After the analysis completes, the right-pane displays the risk histogram.
  13. In the Views menu, click Right Panel > Risk Comparison. The Risk Comparison chart displays the owner and consensus curves in different colors.
  14. (Optional) In the right pane, in the Name column on the Curves tab, rename the scenario.
