Riskhantering i ett infrastrukturprojekt : En fallstudie av Förvaltningen för utbyggd tunnelbana avdelning Norr

The agreement in the 2013 Stockholm negotiation (Stockholmsförhandlingen 2013) included plans to build four new metro lines. As a result to the agreement the Extended Metro Administration (Förvaltning för utbyggd tunnelbana, FUT) was formed and given the commission to carry out the project based on the framework of the 2013 Stockholm negotiation. The expansion is the largest investment for the metro in Stockholm since the 1970s. The project naturally contains many risks that can affect the work environment, environment, cost, time and quality. Risk management is therefore an essential element in FUTs daily work.The purpose of this bachelor’s thesis is to analyze and bring FUT´s attention to improvements within the organization’s risk management process. The analysis consists of an overall image of the organization’s risk management and project risk management through interviews, reviews of internal risk management routines and project documents. FUT’s risk management process is compared to and supported by the risk management framework COSO ERM, risk management standard ISO 31000 and risk management theories in projects.Based on the analysis and discussion, five improvements have been identified:• FUT’s organizational culture for risk management• Monitoring of the contractor's risk management• The structure of the risk register• Opportunity management• Experience and reflection on projectsThe report does not propose solutions for the first improvement area, but proposals for solutions are mentioned for the others
