Qualitative Risk Analysis

What is Qualitative Risk Analysis?

Qualitative Risk Analysis is a risk management technique used to evaluate and prioritize risks based on their potential impact and probability of occurrence. Unlike quantitative risk analysis, which involves the use of numerical values and statistical models, qualitative risk analysis relies on subjective judgments and qualitative data.

Why Do a Qualitative Risk Analysis?

One of the most important decisions a company makes is how and where to deploy resources to minimize negative outcomes. Qualitative Risk Analysis allows an organization to engage in risk-informed strategic decision making to avoid negative outcomes and maximize business success. In short, Qualitative Risk Analysis can help:

  • Increase decision making confidence
  • Accelerate risk management awareness and maturity
  • Optimize operations and maintenance resource efficiency
  • Drive systematic, continuous improvements of control performance
