Overview
Once the state status has been reviewed there may be a need for the Project Manager to take corrective action on an issue or aspect of the project that prevents it from;
- Being contained within its Tolerance margins or
- Meeting quality targets.
When an issue such as this is identified the steps are:
- Collect information about the deviation
- Identify the cause(s) and consequences of the deviation
- Identify potential ways to deal with this deviation, and select one
- If advice from the Project Board is sought assemble all information about the problem including the recommendation and present it
- Update the Stage Plan, Product Description(s) and Configuration Item Record
- Carry out the corrective action.
