The benefits of risk response control are improves effectiveness and efficiency of the risk approach during the project implementation. Risk response control includes the following elements throughout the project:
Tracking identified risks
Monitoring residual risks
Identifying new risks
Evaluating risk process (A Guide to the Project, n.d. p. 349)
Identified Potential Risk
Current Exchange Server goes down
Delay in receiving licenses
Updating Active Directory is done in time
Migration fails
Syncing stops with mobile devices
The following chart shows a control risk data flow diagram and explains how to control risks using inputs, tools, techniques and outputs.

Steps To Control Risk

The following steps are valuable parts of the risk control process of the project.
Current Exchange Server goes down during this project
Project manager will mitigate this risk by making sure we have a full and good backup of the server to place on another server if needed
Proper
Such as the licenses, how long will it take to go into full effect; Not syncing properly, how long will it take to reboot the system to fix this problem; the servers going down, once the servers go down or has malfunctioned, the company would not be able to transfer the data and could potentially lose the data that has been transferred already.
