1.2

Are Scope Creep & Gold Plating bad or not? Why?

Example of Scope Creep:

You are working on a project which entails building a 5-bedroom house in 12 months, with a budget of $500K. In month 4 of this project, the customer asks for another bedroom (so the change is to a 6-bedroom house). Can the customer do this? Why/ why not? 

Example of Gold Plating:

You are working on a project which entails building a 5-bedroom house. The project manager chooses to add 1 more bedroom without changing the project budget. Is this good? Why/ why not?
