You must speed up the delivery date of this project. Your primary constraint before this occurred was the budget. What actions can you take to help speed up the project? A. Hire more resources to get the work completed faster. B. Ask for more money so that you can contract out one of the phases you had planned to do with in-house resources. C. Utilize negotiation and influencing skills to convince the project sponsor to speak with the CEO and make a correction to her announcement. D.
