CRISC Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control – Question026

You work as the project manager for Bluewell Inc. There has been a delay in your project work that is adversely affecting the project schedule. You decide, with your stakeholders' approval, to fast track the project work to get the project done faster. When you fast track the project, what is likely to increase?

A. Human resource needs
B. Quality control concerns
C. Costs
D. Risks

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

Explanation: Fast tracking allows entire phases of the project to overlap and generally increases risks within the project. Fast tracking is a technique for compressing project schedule. In fast tracking, phases are overlapped that would normally be done in sequence. It is shortening the project schedule without reducing the project scope.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Human resources are not affected by fast tracking in most scenarios.
B: Quality control concerns usually are not affected by fast tracking decisions.
C: Costs do not generally increase based on fast tracking decisions.
