You are the project manager for a large software implementation project that is nearing completion when you discover that one of your technicians has been taking shortcuts with the code being written and it is below the standard required in the technical specification. You and a senior team member review the code and form the opinion that it will probably not affect the functionality of the final software product.

What is your NEXT course of action?

A: Carry on as planned and submit a change request.

B: Stop the project and start again, this time writing the code as per the specification.

C: Record the discrepancy, inform the customer, and look for ways to ensure the project won’t be affected.

D: Ignore the problem.
