CompTIA Project+ (PK0-004) — Question 364

A project with a fixed budget is behind schedule. Immediately after the project due date, resources are allocated to other high-priority projects. Which of the following should the project manager do to complete this project?

Answer options

• A. Request an increase in funding from the project sponsor.
• B. Obtain resources from a third-party vendor.
• C. Cancel a project that is scheduled to start after this project.
• D. Negotiate the removal of selected deliverables.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because obtaining resources from a third-party vendor allows the project manager to access necessary skills or manpower to complete the project on time. Option A is not viable due to budget constraints, C would not help in the immediate completion of the current project, and D may compromise the project's objectives and deliverables.
