A strategic program includes multiple sub-projects that share resources. Mid-project, an executive requests an additional deliverable for a digital marketing campaign. The request was not planned in the original baseline, and the sponsor wants it integrated. What should the program manager do next to address this request?
None of these
Assess the proposed requirement’s impact and follow the documented change procedure
Consider placing some program work on hold until the sponsor’s request is thoroughly resolved
Provide the deliverable as requested after further review to satisfy the sponsor
Evaluating a new deliverable request and following the formal change process helps maintain balanced scope, cost, and schedule targets. Skipping impact analysis risks undermining resource availability and benefits delivery, and delaying sub-projects unnecessarily can disrupt the intended roadmap.
