Risks are important to capture during an Integration in that they provide insight into potential issues and challenges. The key is to avoid Risks turning into Issues. Devensoft M&A provides the mechanism to enter, track and manage risks throughout the Integration. 

From a “best practice” perspective, risks are:

• An uncertain future event or condition that, if it occurs, has a positive (opportunity) or negative (threat) effect on one or more project objectives.”
  
  
• Opportunities are exploited and threats are mitigated, avoided, transferred, or accepted.  
  
  
• Risks are evaluated primarily by impact and probability.
