On the Fenwick Grid modernization project, the project manager is reviewing a cumulative cost S-curve. The chart shows that while the Earned Value (EV) line is rising steadily, the Actual Cost (AC) line has flattened significantly over the last three weeks and is now $240,000 below the EV line.
What is the most likely cause the project manager should investigate?
- There is a significant lag in the processing of supplier invoices within the organization's accounting system.
- The team has shifted from predictive to adaptive delivery, rendering the cumulative AC line irrelevant to current status.
- The project manager has effectively used crashing to shorten the schedule without increasing the total project cost.
- The project has achieved a structural efficiency gain that has permanently reduced the burn rate of the execution team.
