A project manager reviews the following change request log: - CR-001: Adds 2 weeks to the schedule. - CR-002: Low-priority enhancement; no schedule impact. - CR-003: Reduces schedule by 1 week to offset delays from other changes. - CR-004: Urgent but high-risk; could cause additional delays. Based on the change request log, which of the following actions should the project manager take to maintain the project schedule?

⚠ Common exam trap

Examine the schedule impact of each change request before approving; even positive impacts should be evaluated for risk.

Correct answer & explanation

✓

Approve CR-003

Based on the change request log, CR-001 adds 2 weeks to the schedule, CR-002 is a low-priority enhancement with no schedule impact, CR-003 reduces the schedule by 1 week to offset delays from other changes, and CR-004 is an urgent but high-risk change that could cause additional delays. To maintain the project schedule, the project manager should approve CR-003 because it directly reduces the schedule and helps compensate for delays caused by approved changes.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • ✗

    Implement CR-004 immediately

    Why it's wrong here

    Implementing CR-004 immediately is risky; it may introduce additional delays and negatively impact the schedule.

  • ✓

    Approve CR-003

    Why this is correct

    Approving CR-003, which reduces the schedule by one week, is the best action to offset delays and maintain the schedule.

  • ✗

    Prioritize CR-002

    Why it's wrong here

    Prioritizing CR-002 is not effective because it has no schedule impact and does not address existing delays.

  • ✗

    Reject CR-001

    Why it's wrong here

    Rejecting CR-001 may not be the best course if it is critical to project scope; the question asks for actions to maintain schedule, and approving a beneficial change is more direct.
