A schedule update shows that the activity delaying turnover sits on the critical path, while another late activity still has ten days of float. Where should recovery planning focus first?

Correct Answer

C) On the critical-path delay affecting project completion

Prioritize recovery of the delay controlling turnover. Monitor the activity with ten days of float as well, because consuming that float could make its path critical. Work already completed and complaint order do not identify the completion-controlling delay. Source: https://www.gao.gov/assets/gao-16-89g.pdf
