B: ensure that the figures provided from uppermanagement cover all of the project variables
D: have Lauren make her estimate more accurate
A: deliver an accurate budget which balances between upper management and Lauren
| B-D: | Assumption(s) | Injection(s) |
| she may have overlooked details may have committed too much importance to various parts of the project that upper management did not, or do not consider important or relevant if a more accurate estimation is made she can further argue the point with valid detail to upper management and correct the project budget and costing |
C: ensure Lauren has all the project details correct and aligned
D': have upper management look back over the figures themselves
In order to deliver an accurate budget which balances between upper management and Lauren I must ensure that the figures provided from uppermanagement cover all of the project variables and in order to ensure that the figures provided from uppermanagement cover all of the project variables I must have Lauren make her estimate more accurate . But, in order to deliver an accurate budget which balances between upper management and Lauren I must also ensure Lauren has all the project details correct and aligned and in order to ensure Lauren has all the project details correct and aligned I must have upper management look back over the figures themselves . I can't both have Lauren make her estimate more accurate and have upper management look back over the figures themselves .
| Relation | Assumption(s) | Injection(s) |
| D-D' | it assumed that the method of approach between the two conflicting bodies is different it is assmed that the information they detailed between each other is different both have different views of the project (ie top down and bottom up) | |
| B-D | she may have overlooked details may have committed too much importance to various parts of the project that upper management did not, or do not consider important or relevant if a more accurate estimation is made she can further argue the point with valid detail to upper management and correct the project budget and costing | |
| C-D' | their approach may have missed specific details they may have under estimated the cost due to different focal points there could have been a breakdown in communication they could be in 'silo thinking' mode. | |
| A-B | there will be a continued discrepancy in the estimate between Lauren and upper management more conflict will arise more doubt will be cast over the project project will be delayed | |
| A-C | she may have missed something in her research lack of communication breakdown of communication paths team breakdown groupthink |
