A program manager notices that a key subcontractor team has delivered consistently high-quality work but has recently shown declining engagement and missed two minor deadlines. The program is on track overall, but this team's work is critical to a major milestone in three months. The program manager wants to improve motivation and ensure the team remains committed. What should the program manager do first?

Issue a formal warning to the subcontractor team about the missed deadlines to enforce accountability.

Review the subcontractor's contract and explore performance-based incentives or bonuses tied to the upcoming milestone.

Escalate the missed deadlines to the program sponsor and request additional budget to hire more subcontractors.

Replace the subcontractor team with a new vendor that has a stronger track record of meeting deadlines.
