The element of risk assessment that the BA needs to consider is risk tolerance. Risk tolerance is the degree of uncertainty that an organization or a stakeholder is willing to accept in relation to the achievement of its objectives or goals1. Risk tolerance can vary depending on the type, impact, and likelihood of the risk, as well as the stakeholder’s attitude, perception, and preference. The BA should consider the risk tolerance of the organization and the stakeholders when quantifying the probability that the solution will meet their needs and assessing the relevant risks. References: 1: BABOK Guide v3, Section 3.2
