PMI Project Management Professional Practice Question
A key supplier has announced a delay in their delivery schedule, which will impact the critical path of the project. As a project manager, what is your NEXT step to manage the impact on the project?
Ignore the delay since the supplier should catch up
Recommend adjustments to the project scope/backlog to accommodate the new delivery schedule
Escalate the problem to the project sponsor as this deals with critical path
Reduce the project quality standards to maintain the schedule
