Implement risk responses

The act of implementing risk responses can happen at any time during the execution of project work. Things may not be working out the way they were planned, and at the same time, you are making sure that the responses you are using are working. The good thing about this process is it is precisely how it sounds. You did all the hard work, iteratively identifying, qualifying, quantifying, and creating responses. Now, it is time to implement them. Implementing risk responses is a relatively short section for the exam content but is much more influential on an actual project.
