Abstract

Notwithstanding the domain of activities where they are conducted, projects often entail risks, and risk management has been widely recognized as a success factor in project management. While several lists of risk factors have been proposed in several domains, there exists no generic tool for helping the assessment of the risk level of a given project. This paper presents the Gresults of a first effort toward such a generic tool. Following a review of the literature on project risk management in various domains, the paper presents a generic list of risk factors. La nature risquée de certains types de projets et l'importance de la gestion du risque de projets sont largement reconnues, et ce quelque soit le domaine d'activités. Si des listes de facteurs de risque propres à chaque domaine ont été proposées au fil des ans, il n'existe pas d'instrument de mesure générique en cette matière. Ce rapport est un premier pas dans cette direction. Après avoir défini le concept d'exposition au risque, le rapport présente les résultats d'une recension d'études portant sur la mesure et la gestion du risque dans des domaines variés. À la suite de cette recension, une liste générique de facteurs de risque en contexte de gestion de projets est présentée.
