The data migration is just one item in the entire project, and since the main project is always changing, it was time to re-plan the data migration sub-project.
The result of such action showed that we're around 5% behind schedule.
The problem is not the number, it is not a worrying number since it can be recovered in one week.
The problem is the reason for that number.
We are behind schedule because the project sponsor is unable to close data migration tasks.
We do several rounds of functional mapping, every time we left some unmapped fields because doubts exists, which is totally normal, but then inertia comes in!
If we do not push the project sponsor teams by making extra mapping sessions, they will not move and will not find the answers for the doubts.
We could live with this model previously, since we did manage to get time for that, but now we have our hands full so we cannot participate in extra mappings sessions.
