project. If the management elects to use resource leveling, then what will happen to the project

You work as a project manager for BlueWell Inc. Your project is falling behind though the project
team reports that the actual durations of their work is what they estimated. You investigate the
cause and determine that the project team is not starting their assignments early enough to finish

duration estimates, the completion time is causing the project schedule to slip from the baseline.
What can you do to rectify this problem?
