A project manager is working on a time and materials (T&M) project using a hybrid approach. The milestones and outcomes are defined for the first 6 months with incremental releases every month. After the first 2 months, the client communicates their dissatisfaction with the results and asks to change the course of the project. The project manager held a face-to-face meeting with the client and now has a better understanding of the newly desired milestones and outcomes.

  • A. Draft a contract change with the desired scope changes and send it to the client for approval.
  • B. Forward the client's request to management as a change request to get formal approval.
  • C. Finish the current monthly release as it was planned and replan for the future months.

Selected Answer: D
In this situation, the project manager has received new information from the client about desired changes in milestones and outcomes. The first step should be to ensure that all stakeholders are on the same page regarding these changes. This means documenting the new requirements and ensuring they are communicated clearly to all relevant parties before any formal actions are taken. On the other hand, Option B might be necessary after the new requirements have been documented and discussed with stakeholders. The immediate priority is to document and communicate the new requirements, not to seek approval before this has been done.
