    The document discusses how to create a risk probability and impact matrix for risk management. It explains that the matrix defines probability and impact scales, such as ordinal or cardinal, and combines them to rate risk levels. Probability is the likelihood of an event occurring, while impact is the potential effect on project objectives. The matrix is included in the risk management plan to assess individual risks.
