A project manager is reviewing the assumptions log and finds that an assumption about the availability of a specialized contractor was not verified. The contractor is now booked for the entire project duration. What should the project manager do?

Remove the assumption from the log because it is no longer relevant.

Document a new risk that the specialized contractor is unavailable and assess its impact on the project schedule.

Assume another contractor can be found without assessing the risk.

Proceed with the project plan because the contractor might become available later.

What is a key technique to encourage stakeholders to challenge assumptions and constraints?

Providing only positive feedback

Limiting discussion to experts only

During a risk identification workshop, the project manager shares the outputs of the assumption and constraint analysis. What is the primary purpose of using these outputs in this context?

To finalize the project budget and schedule baseline

To assign risk owners to each identified risk

To document lessons learned from previous projects

To identify potential risks that may arise from the assumptions and constraints
