Due to multiple changes, the sign-off for the project scope baseline is delayed. The project sponsor has restricted the budget for this project. Which of the following should the project manager MOST likely do to move forward?
A.
Communicate with the affected stakeholders.
B.
Initiate a formal change request to modify the cost.
C.
Adjust the scope to stay within the cost.
D.
Set a new cost using a lightweight estimation method.
The project manager should communicate with the affected stakeholders first after realizing that the sign-off for the project scope baseline is delayed due to multiple changes and that the budget for this project is restricted by the project sponsor. The affected stakeholders are those who have an interest or influence on the project and may be impacted by any changes or delays. Communicating with them can help to explain the situation, assess the impact, seek feedback, and manage expectations.
How does this address the issue that the project sponsor has restricted the budget for this project. Communicating to the stakeholder is important but in order to keep the project moving the budget needs to be addressed and since it is restricted some adjustments need to be made to keep the ball rolling on
Maybe I am wrong, but I feel like it should be B. Initiate a formal change request? I think this would be the first thing most likely after which A and C would both occur.
Stakeholders need to know. Its already delayed anyways so submitting a change first doesn't make much sense when more changes will be coming once the Stakeholders know.
Communicating with stakeholders will not move the project forward. You need to get through the issue stopping the project which is the budget. C would address this issue.
Communicate with the affected stakeholders: This is the most prudent initial action to ensure everyone understands the implications of the delayed sign-off and the restricted budget. It's essential to align expectations and come to a mutual agreement on how to proceed.
Among these options, "Customer Notification" (Option C) would be the most appropriate item to add to the issue log in this specific context. The issue seems to center around stakeholders not being adequately informed about the extended downtime, and therefore a lack of or insufficient customer notification would be the closest match for the problem that needs to be resolved.
Talk with affected skaeholders because they may not get everything they requested.
