  2. Sliding
  3. Slacking
  4. All of the above
Explanation
Answer: A - The term slipping is used to describe a project’s progress when the required product, service, or system is not produced, provided, or constructed by a specific project milestone date. Adequate steps must be taken to bring a project under control so that the overall project schedule and budget are not negatively impacted due to slippage. It is also important to monitor the progress toward milestones in order to ensure the work is not being completed too quickly, which may result in poor quality products, and/or an under-utilized workforce.
