What does the Risk Management Plan and Agile Contracts Kit include?
The Risk Management Plan and Agile Contracts Kit includes 432 structured self-assessment questions (247 on risk management, 185 on agile contracting), two automated Excel scoring dashboards, a 48-page remediation roadmap template, five reusable policy and contract templates, and all files delivered instantly via digital download in editable DOCX and XLSX formats.
Are you exposing your organisation to avoidable project failures, budget overruns, and contractual disputes by relying on outdated risk management practices and rigid contract models? Without a structured approach to identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks in agile environments, and without contracts that support iterative delivery and changing requirements, you risk missed deadlines, legal exposure, and loss of stakeholder trust. The Risk Management Plan and Agile Contracts Kit is a comprehensive self-assessment solution that empowers risk officers, compliance leads, and project managers to build resilient, adaptive frameworks aligned with modern delivery methodologies. This kit gives you immediate clarity on where your current processes fall short and how to close those gaps, before they result in audit findings, contractual penalties, or project collapse.
What You Receive
- A 247-question risk management self-assessment across six maturity domains: Strategic Alignment, Risk Identification, Assessment & Prioritisation, Response Planning, Monitoring & Reporting, and Governance. Each question is mapped to ISO 31000 and PMI Risk Management standards, enabling you to benchmark against global best practice.
- 185 targeted assessment questions on agile contracting principles, including scope adaptability, pricing models (e.g. time-and-materials, fixed-sprint), exit clauses, performance incentives, and change control mechanisms. These are aligned with SAFe, Scrum, and Agile Alliance guidelines to ensure contractual agility matches delivery agility.
- Two fully customisable Excel scoring workbooks that automatically calculate your maturity score, highlight high-risk areas, and generate a visual gap analysis dashboard for executive review.
- A 48-page remediation roadmap template in Word format that guides you step-by-step in converting assessment findings into an actionable improvement plan with timelines, ownership assignments, and success metrics.
- Five real-world policy and contract clause templates, including a sample agile statement of work, risk register, escalation protocol, and vendor risk onboarding checklist, ready for immediate use or adaptation.
- Instant digital download in ZIP format containing all files in editable DOCX and XLSX formats, ensuring seamless integration into your existing risk and procurement workflows.
How This Helps You
Using this self-assessment, you can pinpoint weaknesses in your current risk and contracting frameworks in under 90 minutes. The structured question sets help you uncover hidden liabilities, such as unenforceable contract terms or blind spots in third-party risk, before they trigger disputes or compliance breaches. By implementing the recommended actions, you gain confidence in your ability to manage uncertainty in fast-moving projects, reduce the likelihood of cost overruns by up to 40%, and negotiate contracts that support collaboration over conflict. Inaction risks continued reliance on waterfall-style contracts that stifle agility, expose your organisation to legal challenges during scope changes, and undermine delivery team autonomy. With regulatory scrutiny increasing and stakeholder expectations rising, failing to modernise your risk and contracting approach directly threatens programme success and organisational credibility.
