2. What information did the vice president fail to analyze? The vice president (VP) fails to analyze the overrun properly. The predictable overrun should be (81+55+73+70)/ (74+52+68+60)*2.66-2.66=$272,283, which is 10.24% of the overall budget, as well as the schedule.

This should also be noted that Glass and Knight should never have stated that Rosa is the Senior Vice President of Intuitive Surgical in this article. With this…
