hard · Project Management Professional Hybrid Approaches
At Nimbus Clinics, a hybrid project to deploy a telemedicine platform is underway. The hardware installation in 40 clinics follows a predictive schedule, while the application's user interface is being developed in two-week sprints. At the end of month 4, the hardware workstream reports a CPI of 0.82 and an SPI of 1.05. Meanwhile, the software team's velocity has dropped from 30 points to 22 points.
What should the project manager do first?
- Escalate the hardware cost overrun to the project sponsor and request additional contingency funds.
- Submit a change request to the Change Control Board to rebaseline the software team's delivery velocity.
- Perform a root-cause analysis on the hardware cost variance to determine why efficiency is low.
- Direct the software team to increase their velocity to 30 points in the next sprint to maintain the release date.
