    This is a really interesting topic to discuss as this type of situation often happens in a workforce. During my co-op experience, I was a part of the huge transfer project in which my company acquired another small medical device company. In this project, many departments collaborated as it was huge acquisition and needed a team effort. One of the major tasks is to evaluate the suppliers of the existing company and get them transferred onto our company. One of the SME on Supplier Quality needed to be transferred to another critical project. The Project Manager was a smart and as a result he asked the upper management to ask the resource from the Global Quality Team. Few training with respect to the specific project was required, but overall the new Quality Engineer was able to catch up fast. Due to many years of experience as the PM, he was easily able to acquire the correct resource for the project. All in all, this situation often happens in the industry and the PM must be ready to find the right resource for the project.
