Fast tracking has major impact on Quality of the project. Every project has to run through certain process as per the plan. When it is fast tracked, we may provide low lead time for key activities which impact on Quality.

If the plan is not continuously tracked and updated to reflect actual execution you might end up loosing target dates or missing on the scope. On the other hand, you might negatively impact other projects which share members of your project team.
