Other Diagramming Techniques

In addition to PERT and network diagrams, there are a variety of other diagramming techniques that have broad application in a project risk environment. Flowcharts and probabilistic analysis tools, such as GERT (Graphical Evaluation and Review Technique) and VERT (Venture Evaluation and Review Technique), open the doors to other opportunities for risk examination and understanding. Similarly, force field charts and Ishikawa’s cause-and-effect diagrams also have risk applications.
