Assume you are halfway (50%) through your expected project schedule and you have noted the following:
- Amira receives an email error messageher catering order never made it to the supplier!
- The caterer informs you that they can process the order, but it will cost 25% more due to having to import special ingredients internationally in time for the event.Alternatively, you can have a simple menu for the same cost (but without the imported ingredients).
- When you booked the artist for the event, they requested a massage chair be made available during sound check. The artist will now not arrive until the day of the event and will not conduct a sound check. Ellie has asked you to cancel the soundcheck, andreturn the massage chair.
