Section Manager, regarding the progress of the new project, Phase 1 has been completed as scheduled.

I see, it's going smoothly. There is also room in the schedule, are there any problems?

Actually, the development team has proposed a change to some of the specifications.

Specification change? Isn't a change at this stage high risk?

Yes. However, according to the latest user test results, there is a fear that the bounce rate will be high with the current operability.

I see. But changes right before release might affect the entire system.

Yes. But considering user convenience, they've judged that correcting it now will prevent later troubles.

Hmm. That's a convincing explanation. So, how much will the man-hours increase?

Since we need to review from the database design, about 2 weeks of additional work is necessary.

That will cause a delay in the overall schedule. Moreover, will it fit within the budget?

That's the challenge; there is a possibility that additional costs will be incurred.

Hmm, if it goes over the budget, the Department Manager's approval will be necessary.
