The third project is one that is not as complex as the second project, but you have a good working relationship with the customer. You do not, however, have any insight about the project sponsor.
Which of the projects would you choose to manage and why? Suppose your manager asks you to manage a project in which you are not interested. How will you handle the situation?
In what ways can underestimation or overestimation of costs impact a software project's success?
