Our funding proposal was approved but the budget came back 14 percent lower than requested. The timeline didn’t change. Now we’re trying to do the same work with fewer resources. How are you handling these tradeoffs.

I handle that kind of change by outlining how the budget decrease is going to stretch the timeline

That and I’d present what deliverable I propose to cut
