PMP Practice: Support team task accountability

Takeshi Morimoto is managing a medical device certification project for Arctic Fox Dynamics using a predictive approach. The project involves a series of regulatory submissions that require specialized engineering decisions. Three senior engineers on the team—each with deep expertise in different technical domains—have been asking Takeshi for approval on routine technical design choices such as material specifications, testing parameters, and documentation formats. These decisions are within their areas of expertise and do not affect project scope, budget, or schedule. However, the engineers continue to wait for Takeshi's explicit approval before proceeding, which is causing delays in completing deliverables. Takeshi has verified that organizational policies permit technical subject matter experts to make decisions within their domain of expertise. What should Takeshi do?
