Explanation

Because the lessons learned clearly document a specific, proven risk (late GTG delivery causing shutdown), the project manager already has sufficient information to take immediate proactive action. Reviewing and updating the project schedule (C) is the first priority because it allows the PM to identify where the GTG delivery sits in the schedule, assess whether current lead times are adequate, add buffer or adjust sequencing to prevent a repeat shutdown, and understand the current exposure. This directly protects the project. Option A (adding to the risk register and communicating) is a valid next step but should follow the schedule review. Option B (communicating about a shutdown plan) is reactive and premature. Option D (interviewing the other PM) might add nuance but the lesson learned document already provides the critical fact; additional discovery can occur in parallel but is not the first action.
