During the execution phase of a software development project, you discover that the high-performance computing resources are being used significantly more than planned, impacting the project's budget. As a project manager, what should be your FIRST course of action?
Continue monitoring the resource utilization without taking any action, assuming the team has it under control.
Reduce resource usage by cutting down on non-essential computing tasks.
Assess whether the excess usage of high-performance computing resources aligns with the project’s resource management plan and take corrective action as needed.
Request additional funding to cover the costs associated with the increased usage of computing resources.
The first course of action is to compare resource requirements and resource allocation to actual resource utilization to identify gaps in resource availability. This step is critical for addressing issues promptly and taking the necessary corrective action to bring resource utilization back in line with the project plan.
