Rachael is the project manager for a large project in her organization. A new change request has been proposed that will affect several areas of the project. One area of the project change impact is on work that a vendor has already completed. The vendor is refusing to make the changes as they've already completed the project work they were contracted to do. What can Rachael do in this instance?
There could be many reasons why the vendor is refusing to do the new work, but chief among them is that they've completed their contractual obligations. They could have already moved their crew to new projects and aren't available for more work at the present time, the question just doesn't say. The only valid option of the choices is for Rachael can do is to consult the contract for advice.
Answer option A is incorrect. The vendor is apparently under no legal obligation to complete new work caused by the project change.
Answer option C is incorrect. Rachael cannot withhold payment requests for new work. She must abide by the contract.
Answer option B is incorrect. The vendor has already completed their contractual obligation.
