Why each option

To fulfill internship deliverables by creating internal projects without additional customer costs, the project manager should define the new scope with a WBS, utilize the project's contingency budget, and actively manage the quality of all deliverables.

ACreate a work breakdown structure (WBS) of the new scope with the internal projects.Correct

Creating a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for the new internal projects is essential to formally define, organize, and manage the additional scope, ensuring clarity on tasks and dependencies to achieve the internship objective.

BCreate a change request with the scope of the new internal projects.

Creating a change request with the scope of the new internal projects is necessary if the change affects the customer's scope, cost, or schedule, but not if the project manager is accommodating the deliverable internally without impacting the customer's agreement.

CUse the project's contingency budget.Correct

Utilizing the project's contingency budget is appropriate for absorbing the costs of the internally created projects, as this budget is specifically allocated to manage known-unknown risks and planned responses, such as unforeseen needs to meet a core deliverable without increasing customer costs.

DInfluence the client to initiate a new project.

Influencing the client to initiate a new project would likely add costs for the customer or change the original project's scope, directly contradicting the requirement to fulfill the scenario without adding costs for the customer.

EManage the quality of the delivery.Correct

Managing the quality of the delivery, including these new internal projects, is crucial to ensure that the internships remain valuable and meet the overall project objectives, despite the change in how they are facilitated, thereby upholding the project's integrity and value.
