During the Execution and Controlling Phases, these priorities may need to be revisited in the event
decisions must be made with regards to changes in scope.
The Project Director must identify how these priorities will rank in importance to each other.
Using the matrix below, decisions (can be made based on a priority level) which will allow a project
manager to make adjustments to a project, based on priorities. The Project Director must assign one
“X” per column and one “X” per row.
