5. Explain the
consequences of
project delays,
disruptions, and
changes to planned
activities and the
methods for claims
variations, liquidated
damages, contract
entitlements, and
arbitration.
When a project is delayed then there are several consequences that the project
manager and the project team have to face. Until the project is delivered in time
the client of the project keep pressurise the team that is developing the project.
If the project manager is unable to deliver the project on time then they are
tends to consider the quality of the project and the project quality degraded by
this. A fix plan is necessary for the project to complete in the estimated time and
cost. The change in the project plan may see the project getting complex for the
developer to develop. In the warranty policy it is mentioned that any kind of
liquid damage will not be consider under the warranty. The contract that is done
between the team and the client must be circulated to the each employee so
they can work as per the given contract. The developers and the client must
communicate directly with each other without the interference of any third
party.

6. Evaluate project
management tools
that help avoid or
provide conflict
resolution via
negotiated solutions.
The conflict is unavoidable in the project management. The main reason behind
the conflict is having different point of view a common topic. The conflict can
happen on the work style, point of view and on the process of thinking. The
efficiency of the organization gets affected by the conflict. To resolve the conflict
between the individuals the project management tools are used. The conflict
can be resolved by avoiding the conflict, start a competition between the
individuals those started the conflict, accommodate the thinking of the
individuals. If the conflict is mitigated then the productivity of the organizations
will also increase.
