A company has an existing contract to maintain and enhance a client's customer database. The company's legal department informs the project manager that a new piece of legislature requiring stricter protection of customer information might soon be signed into law. The law will require additional security features to be implemented into the database the project manager is maintaining. These features are not included in the scope of the current contract.

What should the project manager do?

  • A. Update the risk register to include this issue and discuss the appropriate risk response plans with the project sponsor and client.
  • B. Ask the legal department to raise the issue in the next contract negotiation with the customer.
  • C. Seek the project sponsor's support to influence the client to amend the contract immediately.
  • D. Wait until the legal requirements are finalized so the change in scope can be concretely defined.

This approach allows the project manager to proactively manage the potential impact of the new legislation. By updating the risk register and discussing it with key stakeholders, the project manager ensures that the project team is prepared and that there is a plan in place to address the changes if and when they become necessary. This strategy provides a balanced approach, combining risk management with stakeholder engagement.
