You were a project manager for a software development project.

You decided that the agile life-cycle was the most appropriate for your project. Later, when you are in the middle of your project planning, your team member suggested that significant number of deliverable could be developed by using waterfall approach before the plans were being baselined. Later, there were some changes in management which result in a replacement of some of the previous key stakeholders with the new ones. At the regular status meeting, some new key stakeholders complained that agile life-cycle was too radically different from project management methodology which the stakeholders were familiar to, which was waterfall. Which of the following scenario is the most appropriate in the situation above?

A. You should ask the team member to issue a change request to propose hybrid life-cycle to meet the expectation of stakeholders not familiar in agile. The request should be processed in Perform Integrated Change Control.

B. * You should provide information regarding agile project life-cycle to the complaining stakeholders.

C. You should issue a change request to propose hybrid life-cycle to optimize the processes for deliverable which can be developed in waterfall approach. The request should be processed in Perform Integrated Change Control.

D. You should analyse the impact if the project life-cycle is replaced to hybrid approach and provide thorough report to the Change Control Board before being processed in the Perform Integrated Change Control.
