A program manager is leading a program to transform an organization's sales and customer service operations by introducing a new customer relationship management (CRM) solution. As the program progresses, the sponsor and other stakeholders are satisfied with the pace of the program's performance.

A stakeholder from the sales department now requests a new feature to integrate the CRM platform with another application. The program manager advises that this is out of scope, as it will require analysis and development and be a project on its own. The program manager then requests additional funding via the formal change management process and the new scope is approved.
