- Commitments (either internal or external) that have not been satisfied
- Significant changes in risk status
- Data access, collection, privacy, or security issues
- Stakeholder representation or involvement issues

2. Analyze issues to determine the need for corrective action.
Refer to the Establish the Budget and Schedule specific practice in the Project Planning (PP) (CMMI-DEV) process area for more information about corrective action criteria.
Corrective action is required when the issue, if left unresolved, may prevent the project from meeting its objectives.
