The project manager should collaborate with the compliance team member to review and prioritize the requirement’s delivery, as this is a way to manage the change request and ensure that the project meets the compliance standards and expectations. The project manager should also communicate the impact of the change on the project scope, schedule, cost, and quality to the project sponsor and other stakeholders, and obtain their approval and support. The project manager should not ask the team to include the compliance requirement in the current sprint and deliver it (choice A), as this would disrupt the sprint planning and execution, and create scope creep and quality issues. The project manager should not add the new compliance requirement to the backlog as the technical team does not have any capacity (choice B), as this would delay the delivery of the compliance requirement and expose the project to legal and regulatory risks. The project manager should not include the compliance lead in the stakeholders list and wait for the next status meeting (choice C), as this would not address the urgency and importance of the compliance requirement, and it would not involve the compliance lead in the decision-making and problem-solving process. References:
