What is the difference between contingency and mitigation plan?..

Answer / ritesh singhal

What is Risk Mitigation?
Mitigation is the process of solving problems that were caused or reducing the effect of the risk once it arises. In other words, risk mitigation strives to minimize a risk that materializes. Risk mitigation can also be seen as a method used to control damage that has already being done, and to reduce the ‘blow’ or consequences that it may have on the organization.

What is Contingency ?
Contingency is a planning process in which the company will come up with a few backup plans in the event that the risk materializes. A contingency plan is also known as the action plan for the worst case scenario. Such plans are essential to an organization as it helps organization quickly adapt to changes while suffering less consequences.

Mitigation vs Contingency
