Scenario Information
You are assuming the role of the project manager for a

submitting to your manager a project management report.

As the Project Manager, your manager has asked you to prepare
a report on unplanned events that have occurred. You have been
asked to present this report to a group of managers, and should
discuss your course of action for two unplanned events (below) that
have occurred for SuperPacks. You will need to analyze the impact
of these events in your project management report as a
presentation; this can be PowerPoint, Prezi, or any presentation
tool. Make sure you address the following questions in your
presentation as you will be giving it to the management team.
Discuss your analysis on the following events:
It is discovered the refrigerated module is too large for the
designed refrigerated backpack pouch. What is your course of
action?
The subcontractor assigned to build the radio module for the
backpack has shut down. What is your course of action?

of the areas of the project affected by the events should include
changes to budget, human capital, and impact to schedule. Identify
