It has come to my attention that the budget plan for Project HRM517 has been depleted quicker than expected. As the team leader of Project HRM517, it is my responsibility to make sure that every aspect of Project HRM517 stays on tract. I also did some investigation as to which group is over using their budget. Even so my report is not conclusive and I will need to have each team’s report and update to be sure of my findings.

Therefore, I am proposing that we all meet together to come up with a plan to rectify this budget depletion situation. I am counting on all of you to help me pull this through, for I cannot fix this alone. I need your full support and corporation to have this situation repair in a speedily fashion. In addition, before we have our meeting, I suggest that each team print out a progress report of your section and see if your budget is on tract. Also, if there is any way to make some budget cut in your section. In that way, when we actually meet your team can share how and where we can repair the budget back on tract.

Please keep in mind that failure is not option, we must do our diligent to fix this budget crisis. Project HRM517 is very important to the well-being of every employee in this company as well as the overall functionality of this organization. So please know that what we are doing is very important. Thank you all for your help and corporation.
