Key word to pay attention to is "HARD TIMELINE"
They know that dont have skill right from first iteration.
if timeline was not hard they could have sent developers on training and built skill gradually but they dont have time so best course of action is A.
Just had a discussion about familiar situation with a project member. Team member indicates that SME is needed but Project ignores.
and the answer C would lead to a work that has to be redone several times in this case, increased risks of future issues. answer A would be most efficient one if looking from quality and time perspective(having in mind that everyone would be sharing their knowledge)
off course if team takes full responsibility maybe answer C is correct, but....
Add a subject matter expert (SME) to the project team.
is a result of
Stakeholders Consensus.
So stakeholder first, cost/risk consideration, then adding a SME. Not just cause Project Manager "Decided"
Initially went with A, but after reading back, I understand why its C. It's still the first Iteration. Let the team get adjusted and gather more understanding and data.
When a project team lacks the necessary skills to execute a project, adding a subject matter expert (SME) to the team is a proactive step to address the skill gap. The SME can contribute specialized knowledge and expertise, helping the team overcome challenges and ensuring the project progresses successfully. This is a practical approach to enhance the team's capabilities and increase the likelihood of meeting the project timeline.
D is the right answer. A is wrong because you cant expand or reduce the project team without the required formal approvals. The outcome of D will however likely end up with A.
When a project team lacks the necessary skills to execute a project with a hard timeline, the project manager should take action to address this skill gap effectively. Option A is the most appropriate response:
A. Add a subject matter expert (SME) to the project team.
Does the Agile Methogology based on PM take the decisions by himself or Agile is based in team collaboration and team decision?
According team decition on Agile Methods I will go with D, PM is a facilitator and stakeholders must decide based on discussion
D. Invite stakeholders to discuss a mitigation plan to finish on time.
Must discuss first the best solution with the stakeholders, training, SME or any other solution
