The project manager should refer to the risk register and follow the mitigation plan. In this situation, the risk of scope changes impacting the project schedule was identified and documented in the risk register during the initiation phase. The mitigation plan, which should have been developed as part of the risk management process, provides guidance on how to address and mitigate this specific risk. By referring to the risk register and following the mitigation plan, the project manager can take proactive steps to manage the impact of scope changes on the project schedule. If there are adjustments or actions outlined in the mitigation plan, they should be implemented to address the risk and minimize the negative impact on the project timeline.

This option prioritizes preparedness and adherence to pre-determined strategies. By: Reviewing the risk register: Recalling the identified scope change risk and its mitigation plan demonstrates awareness and proactive risk management. Analyzing the mitigation plan: Assessing the applicability of the existing mitigation strategies in the current context is crucial for determining the best course of action. Implementing the mitigation plan: Taking concrete steps outlined in the plan showcases a commitment to addressing the risk and potentially resolving the delay.
