Platform & GovernanceDelivery Lead

Catch risks and gate quality before you ship

Keep a risk register and require quality-gate reviews before a release goes out

Catch risks and gate quality before you ship

Delivery goes wrong in two predictable ways: a risk nobody wrote down turns real, or something ships that wasn't actually ready. PlanMagnet gives a delivery team two instruments to govern both, on the same workspace as the work.

A delivery lead logs risks deliberately — each with a likelihood, an impact, and a mitigation plan — and the platform buckets them onto a likelihood × impact matrix. Instead of discovering risk late, the team reads it on a grid where the top-right corner is exactly what deserves attention now, and every risk carries an owner and a status.

For readiness, quality gates are named checkpoints a release has to pass, each with its own criteria. A gate is reviewed as an explicit operation that records a verdict — approved, or sent back — so "is this ready?" is answered on the record rather than with a hallway nod. A gate that hasn't passed is a visible blocker, not a forgotten checklist.

Both live where the delivery does, scoped to the workspace and governed by permissions, so the review is attributable and the register is trustworthy. A program manager reading a project sees not just the work, but the risks against it and whether the quality bar has actually been cleared.

Illustrative scenario describing the risk-register and quality-gate governance the platform is being built to deliver.

Illustrative planning guide

Track delivery risk on a likelihood × impact matrix and gate a release on named quality checkpoints with a recorded verdict — so risk is managed on purpose and "is this ready to ship?" has an auditable answer.
