A project manager has been assigned to an emergency project that must be completed within the next few weeks. The project manager realizes this will have an impact on the local community. As the work is near a school, the project manager has engaged with them to understand their needs.
How should the project manager ensure the work continues smoothly?
In order to address the impact on the local community, particularly because the project is near a school, the project manager should liaise with the school to include nonworking project hours during school start and finish times. This approach ensures that the project progresses without disrupting the school operations, thus maintaining a balance between project priorities and community needs. Postponing the work (Option A) and advising the school to close (Option C) are impractical solutions, and continuing without accommodating the school (Option B) could create conflicts and disruptions.
The answer is D. It's a win-win for the school and the project works.
