a. Describe what is meant by Scope Creep and explain how it can lead to unsatisfactory outcomes on an IT project.

b. Describe two techniques that an IT project manager could use to minimise the likelihood of Scope Creep on their project. Use examples to illustrate how each of these techniques would work.

c. Discuss whether software development projects are more susceptible to Scope Creep than other types of projects. Make sure you explain your reasoning.
