To salvage the situation, first, conduct a thorough assessment to understand why the vendor missed the deadlines. Communicate directly with the vendor to address the issues and establish a revised timeline with specific milestones. Ensure that you have a clear and documented plan for how these new deadlines will be met. Additionally, consider implementing regular progress reviews and require the vendor to provide frequent status updates. If needed, explore alternative solutions, such as reallocating resources or seeking additional support, to mitigate any further delays. Maintaining open, transparent communication and fostering a collaborative approach will be crucial for getting the project back on track and ensuring its success.

Fourth, if the matter is repeated, work must be done to find another resource that will do what the current resource must do at his expense due to his failure to perform his duties.
