Risk management software with a register a person still owns
A risk register only works if new threats make it onto the page. Sigmaviu stores score, owner, status, and approval, and can suggest additions from project communications for someone to accept or dismiss.
Risk leads, project managers, and PMO reviewers.

What changes
01
A real register
Each risk has a score, a status from identified through closed, and an approval state.
02
An owner with a name
Owners are people you can search, including employees who are not yet licensed seats.
03
Suggestions, not silent writes
Scans of comments, RFIs, daily reports, and filed mail propose risks. Apply and Dismiss stay with a person.

How Sigmaviu handles this
Approval
Risks can sit pending, approved, or rejected so the live register is not every draft thought.
Schedule slips
You can raise risks from schedule slips you choose, next to baseline variance.
Paste or forward mail, or connect a project mailbox. Nightly scanning stays off until you opt in.
Portfolio view
Open and pending-approval risks roll into portfolio health for sponsors.
A working sequence
1
Identify
Add a risk or review a suggestion.
2

Set likelihood, impact, and owner.
3
Approve
Accept it onto the live register.
4
Close
Retire it when the treatment is done and keep the history.
Scope
Communication scanning proposes risks. It does not add them to the register by itself, and the nightly job is off by default.
Questions buyers ask
Will overnight email become risks automatically?
No. The nightly scan is opt-in and off unless you enable it. Even then, suggestions wait for a person.
Can a client see risks?
Only if you share them through the portal. Staff register permissions still apply on the inside.
What is the score field?
Risks use a risk score and an approval status. There is no separate severity column to keep in sync.
