RAID Log Overview

A RAID Log is a structured tool used to track Risks, Assumptions, Issues, and Dependencies throughout the project lifecycle. It provides a centralized view of potential threats, key assumptions driving the plan, current challenges, and external/internal factors that may impact delivery. By capturing ownership, status, and mitigation strategies, the RAID Log helps teams stay proactive, aligned, and accountable. It serves as both a monitoring mechanism and a decision-support tool to ensure that risks and issues are managed effectively while dependencies and assumptions remain visible to stakeholders.
