A project manager is leading an engineering project. The project manager must obtain some certifications before mass production, which is scheduled in 3 months. The certification process will require at least 6 months. What should the project manager do next? Meet with senior management to discuss the possibility of an extension to the project timeline. Discuss extending the mass production timeline by 3 months with the project sponsor. Assess and evaluate the certification process and understand the best and worst case scenarios. Engage a consultant to shorten the certification process to meet the schedule requirement
