Selected Answer: B
Pretty straightforward but you can also use process of elimination. Other options don't make sense. B. Issue a change request and activate the formal change control process to address the situation. Explanation: Using the formal change control process ensures that any modifications to the project scope or contract are documented, reviewed, and approved in an official capacity. This approach maintains project integrity and contract compliance.
