When hidden risks threaten delivery, this agent brings them to the surface.

The Risk Assessment Agent analyzes program documents, historical performance, and estimation assumptions to uncover latent risks. It identifies potential drivers of cost and schedule overrun and embeds those uncertainties directly into models. By making risks visible early, teams can plan mitigations before issues escalate, improve audit transparency, and strengthen program outcomes.

Situations & triggers 

When unseen risks need to be exposed 

Risks often hide in assumptions, documents, and overlooked historical patterns. By the time they surface, programs are already dealing with delays, overruns, or strained budgets. The Risk Assessment Agent changes this by embedding risk discovery into planning and estimation workflows so programs can address vulnerabilities before they become failures.

When

early assumptions lack validation

I want to

flag uncertainties and address them before commitments are made

When

past projects reveal recurring overruns

I want to

to compare patterns so I can avoid repeating mistakes

When

new contracts introduce untested requirements

I want to

analyze language so I can spot potential risks

When

leadership demands defensible projections

I want

risk-adjusted models so I can show the full range of outcomes

Desired outcomes/Benefits

How risk visibility improves planning

Programs cannot avoid every risk, but they can prepare for them. The Risk Assessment Agent builds risk awareness directly into estimation, turning uncertainty into structured, trackable elements. This supports proactive mitigation, helps teams build resilience into schedules and budgets, and creates planning artifacts that stand up under executive or audit scrutiny.

Early identification

of cost and schedule risks across program phases.

Traceable links

between assumptions, risks, and potential impacts.

Stronger confidence

in estimates with risk ranges built in.

Audit-ready

transparency with risks documented alongside estimates.

Scenarios/Playbooks

Risk assessment in action

Risk management is most effective when it is continuous, not reactive. The Risk Assessment Agent provides structured workflows that reveal and quantify uncertainties across program stages.

ll risk data is processed in a tenant-isolated environment. Each flagged risk is tied back to its source input, ensuring transparent logic that can be defended in reviews and audits.

See it in action

Scenario 1: Contract risk scan in 3 steps 

Trigger: When new program contracts or requirements arrive. 

Step 1

Upload contract language or key planning documents.

Step 2

The Risk Assessment Agent highlights potential drivers of cost and schedule risk.

Step 3

You receive a structured summary with risk factors tied to assumptions.

Scenario 2: Historical performance analysis in 3 steps

Trigger: When planning for a program similar to past efforts.

Step 1

Provide past program data or historical estimates.

Step 2

The Risk Assessment Agent analyzes recurring gaps and overruns.

Step 3

You receive risk-adjusted models that account for known vulnerabilities.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Risk Assessment Agent find risks?

It analyzes program documents, historical performance, and estimation assumptions to highlight latent risks.

Can it quantify risk impacts?

Yes. Risks are embedded into cost and schedule models, making impacts measurable and traceable.

Does it replace risk managers?

No. It provides structured discovery and quantification to support human-led mitigation planning.

Can it be used during audits?

Yes. Each identified risk is linked to its source input, creating audit-ready evidence.

Does it integrate with SEER?

Yes. Risk outputs can be connected to SEER models for validation and further analysis.

Is data kept secure?

Yes. All inputs and outputs are tenant-isolated, encrypted, and never shared outside your environment.
