CompTIA Project+ (PK0-004) — Question 165

A customer has requested a new feature be included in the next iterative release. The customer has agreed to move a previously planned feature to a subsequent release and increase the budget. Which of the following is the MOST appropriate scheduling action?

Answer options

• A. Analyze the critical path and update the WBS with the new feature
• B. Add the new feature and reprioritize the product backlog
• C. Add the new feature to the next sprint and move the old feature to the following sprint
• D. Conduct a retrospective with the team to discuss the change and introduce the feature

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because adding the new feature to the next sprint while moving the old feature to the following sprint allows for immediate prioritization without disrupting the overall project flow. Option A is incorrect as analyzing the critical path and updating the WBS does not directly address the immediate scheduling needs. Option B fails to specify how the new feature will be implemented in the current sprint. Option D, while useful for team alignment, does not directly facilitate the immediate scheduling of the new feature.
