Context of the organization and risks and opportunities procedure
Assign topic to the user
2. Can risks and opportunities be described within the Mgmt Review process than with a specific procedure?
Answer:
1. Context of the organization can not be considered as a static thing, it is on a contrary ever changing. The internal issues are subjected to change, not to mention the external context of the organization. Considering context of the organization or at least the changes in the context should be performed during management review, this is even a requirement of the standard (clause 9.3.2 b).

2. The standard doesn't prescribe where to describe the risks and opportunities, neither it requires risks and opportunities to be documented. Procedure for addressing risks and opportunities is not mandatory, but it may be created to facilitate identification of the risks and opportunities and planning actions to address them, but it is not common to marge this procedure with the management review process although there are some overlapping.
