QUESTION 26 OF 29

Explain what RAID analysis is and how you would use it.

Many project managers and project support officers use RAID analysis at the beginning of a project for organizational purposes and to identify critical risks and issues. The interviewer wants to know that you're familiar with this concept. Explain how you would use it during a project. If you have past experience using the tool, talk through an example or two.

"To start, RAID stands for Risks, Assumptions, Issues, and Dependencies. In my opinion, it is always wise to run a RAID analysis at the beginning of all projects. It allows you to conduct a broad environmental scan as you plan so any issues or potential risks are preemptively brought to light. It's also helpful from an organizational perspective; it helps to keep the project on track and puts all relevant matters affecting the project in one place. Prior to any project, I would use an online tool like GroupMap, for example, to run a RAID analysis."
