Which action should the project manager initiate? Ans: —
Terminating the project as soon as possible and releasing the
project's resources
A project is an operational necessity to repair a design flaw in the
date field that constrains the year number to two digits, instead of
permitting the year to be indicated with four digits. If the project
is not completed before December 31, 1999, many legacy
programs are expected to fail or produce unpredictable outcomes.
The marketing department wants to upgrade its existing computer
equipment and have the costs included in the budget for this
project. The project team implemented the marketing
department's request without completing the formal change
