Selected Answer: A
Correct Answer: A. Postpone the baseline approval meeting, analyze the impact, and schedule a new meeting to discuss dependencies and priorities with stakeholders. Rationale: Adding critical requirements at the last minute can have significant impacts on scope, schedule, and budget. The most effective approach is to analyze the impact of the new requirements before making any decisions. Postponing the baseline approval meeting allows for a thorough evaluation of dependencies, priorities, and resource needs. Engaging stakeholders in a follow-up meeting ensures that the team aligns on the proposed changes and avoids rushed decisions. Why not Answer B- Share the new requirements with all stakeholders and ask them to submit their comments before the meeting. Collecting comments without a formal impact analysis may lead to incomplete information and poorly informed decisions.
