Question 231

Company A recently signed a contract with a strategic business partner, Company B, to jointly roll out a new technology. Company B is excited about the joint marketing opportunity. Company A's component Quality Assurance team has expressed concerns to you, the program manager, that the product is being rolled out prematurely and has identified potential issues with backend support systems. QA, however, assures you that a manual work around is possible, but not ideal.

Company B requests an enhancement to the new product. In a meeting with Company B, you determine that additional funding will be required and resources allocated and scheduled.

What is your MOST appropriate next step?

    Correct Answer: B

    When a change to a project is requested, especially one that involves additional funding and resource allocation, it is essential to follow the integrated change control process. This process involves reviewing all proposed changes and their impacts on various project parameters such as scope, schedule, cost, and quality. It ensures that changes are comprehensively evaluated and approved through the proper channels, thus securing the necessary resources in a controlled manner and maintaining project integrity.
