Description
The NASA Risk Management Handbook provides a comprehensive guide to managing risk in complex projects and programs. First introduced at NASA in the late 1990s, risk management has become an integral part of systems engineering, with two key processes - Continuous Risk Management (CRM) and Risk-Informed Decision Making (RIDM) - now forming the basis of the agency's approach. In December 2008, NASA issued NPR 8000.4A, which introduced RIDM as a complementary process to CRM. This handbook builds on that introduction, providing a detailed overview of both processes and how they work together to ensure program success and affordability. With its focus on analysis and decision-making, RIDM is now recognized as the front-end of the risk management process. This handbook offers a valuable resource for anyone involved in managing complex projects or programs, providing a clear understanding of the principles and practices that underpin NASA's risk management approach.
