During the planning stage of a new project, you find that the specialized equipment needed is currently being utilized by another project within your organization and will only be available in two months. What would be the BEST approach to acquire such specialized equipment and keep your project on track?
Continue the project without the specialized equipment and try to compensate with additional human resources.
Proceed with a different equipment that is readily available but not specialized for the project requirements.
Cancel the upcoming project activities until the equipment is available from the other project without assessing other options.
Evaluate alternatives to leasing the equipment temporarily or adjusting the project schedule until the equipment becomes available without compromising project deliverables.
In this situation, it is best to evaluate all possible options to acquire the necessary specialized equipment without causing major delays to the project. This could include leasing similar equipment, expediting the release from the other project if possible, negotiating for partial earlier release, or adjusting the project schedule to accommodate the delay. It would not be advisable to proceed without the equipment, as it could compromise the quality of the project deliverables or project success.
