Explanation
When a project is delayed due to rework from a quality problem impacting the critical path, the project manager should report the delay with rectifying actions to the change control board (CCB) for review. The CCB can assess impact and approve corrective measures. Notifying the steering committee (A) informs but does not initiate formal change control. Reporting to the PMO (B) is informational. Rebaselining the schedule (C) accepts the delay without proper approval.
