CompTIA Project+ (PK0-004) — Question 387

Which of the following actions by the project team increases the chance of scope creep?

Answer options

• A. Informing customers to submit a change request when asking for modifications
• B. Following the project plan and incorporating approved changes
• C. Using the baselined network diagram to complete deliverables
• D. Following the directions of the senior management team regarding what work should be done

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Answer B is correct because strictly following the project plan while incorporating approved changes can lead to additional modifications that may not be fully controlled, resulting in scope creep. The other options, such as informing customers to submit change requests (A) and using a baselined network diagram (C), help manage scope effectively, while following senior management directives (D) may lead to misinterpretations of project scope.
