The project manager should ensure that relevant stakeholders and expectations are identified and assess the component delay. This is because the project manager needs to communicate with the stakeholders about the impact of the delay on the project objectives, scope, schedule, cost, and quality, and seek their feedback and support. The project manager also needs to evaluate the component delay and its root cause, and determine the best course of action to address the issue. Asking for expedited delivery, performing a detailed analysis, or proposing a new design are possible actions that the project manager may take after ensuring stakeholder identification and assessment, depending on the outcome of the evaluation. However, they are not the best actions to take in this situation, as they may not address the stakeholder needs and expectations, or may introduce unnecessary changes or risks to the project.
