Question Title

* 1. A project has gone out of control, and the project manager is trying to bring it back under control. There have been a number of changes to the project scope.

Project creep

Question Title

* 2. Peter is leading the development of a digital solution for your organization. There will be over 500 users of this automated workflow within the organization. The high-level project scope has been defined, documented and approved. However, an effort needs to be made to elicit and document detailed system design requirements such as system screen designs, data types and format, system happy and unhappy paths, and related detailed functional and non-functional requirements. If according to the management directive, requirements can only be gathered through requirements elicitation workshops, what would you recommend to Peter?

Issue a change request seeking more time to complete the project.

The developers are prototyping system components and as a result of the user feedback, they are adding their own product features that aren’t documented anywhere. What should you do first?
