medium · Project Management Professional hybrid

At Whitlock Software, a project manager is overseeing a hybrid ERP rollout. The adaptive software teams have refined a new series of stories that, if included, would push the total project spend past the 10% variance threshold allowed by the PMO.

What is the correct next step?

  1. Reject the new stories immediately because they violate the project's cost constraint.
  2. Facilitate a backlog prioritization session with the Product Owner to see if other items can be deferred.
  3. Automatically approve the new stories since the project uses an adaptive delivery approach, after reviewing the current risk register entries.
  4. Report the teams to the PMO for attempting to exceed the approved cost baseline.
