Review your project WBS and activity durations and estimates and perform schedule compression techniques such as crashing fast-tracking and scope reduction. Then write a memo to him assuring him of how you have reviewed ways to shorten the schedule and how all these things are controlled; explain the value of PERT estimating critical path schedule compression techniques risk matrices and earned value management.
