During a critical phase of a construction project, unforeseen issues arise that may impact the project timeline. The project team develops a plan to mitigate these issues. To proceed, formal approval is required. Who is responsible for providing this approval to move forward with the proposed plan?
The project sponsor is responsible for approving changes that significantly impact the project's scope, budget, or timeline. They provide guidance and authorization for major decisions to ensure alignment with organizational objectives. In this scenario, while the project team has developed the mitigation plan, they do not have the authority to approve it. The project manager manages the day-to-day operations but typically does not have the authority to approve significant changes without sponsor approval. The operations manager is not directly involved in project approvals.
