Management of Risk 2010 Edition: Call for Authors

The OGC publication Management of Risk: Guidance for Practitioners (MoR), ISBN 9780113310388, is being revised with the intention of publishing a new edition in the second half of 2010.

The revision will address issues raised through the Change Control System on the Best Management Practice website and as described in a Mandate for Change that has been agreed by the MoR Reference Group.

The project is looking for an author, to work with the MoR mentor, to develop a new edition of the guide to:

  • Address the issues raised in the issues log and agreed by the MoR Reference Group covering topics such as:
    • Roles and organisation
    • Principles of MoR
    • Policy, strategy and plans
    • Risk Approach
    • Issue log
    • Better risk descriptions
    • Process
    • Perspectives
    • Embed and review
    • Inconsistencies in referencing UK legislation.
  • Improve consistency between MoR and the other products in the OGC portfolio, e.g. PRINCE2, MSP, P3O, etc.
  • Ensure it is consistent and has no major conflicts with:
    • ISO/BSI, e.g. BSI 31100 and ISO 31000
    • HMT Orange Book (due for review in 2010).
  • Redesign the content according to OGC's updated style guidelines.

If you are interested in either of these authoring roles please apply by 16 October 2009, enclosing your CV, to:
