Ah, the classic 'work more, don't bill' option. Classic project manager move right there. I bet the team would love that! 'Hey guys, we need you to put in some unpaid overtime. No, I don't have a raise for you, but think of the exposure!'

Option D sounds tempting, but I'm not sure how realistic it is to find ways to reduce hours 'in another part of the project'. That could create more problems than it solves. Better to be upfront and get the sponsor's approval.

I think the program manager should communicate to the program sponsor regarding the additional estimated cost and request a change order.
