medium · Project Management Professional hybrid
Stonehaven Transit is upgrading its fleet tracking using a hybrid model. A geopolitical shift has increased the cost of imported sensors (predictive side), while the software teams (adaptive side) are requesting more cloud capacity. The combined impact exceeds the project's funding limit.
How should the project manager respond?
- Model a descoped version of the project that still meets the high-level business goals within the available funding.
- Request a 30% budget increase from the city council based on the external market shift.
- Advise the team to wait until the sensor prices drop before continuing with the hardware phase, after reviewing the current risk register entries.
- Cut the software team's cloud budget to ensure the essential hardware sensors can be purchased.
