A project is to be carried out and completed in 4 months by the project manager and his team.

The project is to be completed within 4months but is behind schedule since the earliest the project manager can complete is 6months.

The project manager can spend extra money since he will be given discretionary budget money of about 3000 Ghana cedis when required.

He cannot have extra time and there is a penalty imposed for each week the project delays, while the delivery date for the project is fixed and cannot be altered without incurring huge penalties.

How should the project manager proceed? Should he crash or FastTrack the project and what will be the reason for any of the choices made?

What four possible questions should the project manager consider in deciding to either crash or fast track.

How would the project manager evaluate the possible questions that he would raise above?

In case the project manager chooses to crash the project at the end of the day, kindly explain what two or three factors will go in favor of his choice of crashing?
