7.3.3.1. Risk Scoring System

In both the Quality Event application and EPC, risks are scored according to the following system:

Impact

• If Very Low is selected, then the score = 1
• If Low, then the score = 2
• If Medium, then the score = 3
• If High, then the score = 4
• If Very High, then the score = 5
  

Probability

• If Very Low is selected, then the score = 1
• If Low, then the score = 2
• If Medium, then the score = 3
• If High, then the score = 4
• If Very High, then the score = 5
  

Detectability

• If Very Easily Detectable is selected, then the score = 1.
• If Easily Detectable, then the score = 2
• If Moderately Detectable, then the score = 3
• If Hard to Detect, then the score = 4
• If Very Hard to Detect, then the score = 5
  

Total Score = (Impact Level Score) x (Probability Level Score) x (Detectability Level Score)
