As a project manager, you try to get an accurate time estimate for a task by communicating with an expert. After receiving their time estimate, you ask questions like, “What equipment do you suppose you’ll have?” and “How many people do you expect to work on the task?” What strategy for getting an accurate time estimate did you choose?1 pointAssess the expert’s confidence level in their estimate.Ask the expert how likely it is that assumptions they have might not work out and how it would affect their estimate.Discuss the assumptions the expert may be making when they give an estimate.Check the expert’s estimates against the actual time spent on similar tasks in previous work.4.Question 4
