A newly assigned project manager is reviewing the project management plan and realizes that the project is running behind schedule. What should the new project manager do to address this situation?
A.
Negotiate with the project sponsor immediately and establish a new project charter.
B.
Modify the project management plan and get approval from relevant stakeholders.
C.
Issue a change order to the change control board (CCB) and rebaseline the schedule.
D.
Add more resources to recover the schedule without making changes to the baseline.
The answer should be 'C' considering in a traditional project any change in a original plan must go through a change management process...Looking at the question it looks like it is referring to a traditional project.
never mind....figured out. adding more resources will change cost baseline. PM not allowed to do that without Chg control. C is the right choice. thanks
Modifying the project management plan involves a thorough analysis of the current schedule, identifying the reasons for delays, and developing a realistic plan to get back on track. This ensures that any adjustments are based on a solid understanding of the project's needs and challenges. In addition, by getting approval from relevant stakeholders, the project manager ensures that all key parties are aware of the changes and are on board with the new plan. This helps maintain transparency and secures the necessary support for implementing the adjustments. Modifying the project management plan and seeking stakeholder approval aligns with good project governance practices. It ensures that changes are formally documented and authorized, maintaining the integrity of the project management process.
