CompTIA Project+ (PK0-004) — Question 282
A project manager is overseeing an outsourced team of contractors and subcontractors. One month into the project, the project manager realizes tasks are not being completed on time. Subcontractors are not available at the right time.
Which of the following is the NEXT step for the project manager to take to get the project back on track?
Answer options
- A. Reevaluate which areas of the project need to be completed before other steps on the project are completed.
- B. Hire a new contractor who can better handle the team of subcontractors.
- C. Conduct training with the contractors and subcontractors so they can be more organized in their jobs.
- D. Have a meeting with management for approval to reevaluate how the project could be run more smoothly.
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D because having a meeting with management can lead to strategic guidance and approval for necessary changes to improve project execution. Options A, B, and C do not directly address the immediate need for managerial approval or strategic realignment to get the project back on schedule.
