CompTIA Project+ (PK0-004) — Question 557

A company's finance director asks the PMO for help gathering a group of specialists to work in an operations center. Which of the following is the MOST likely action the PMO will take?

Answer options

• A. Request funding to hire the group of specialists.
• B. Assign a project manager to start working on the project charter.
• C. Ask the finance director to sign the statement of work.
• D. Inform the finance director the PMO only works for projects.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the PMO typically initiates the project management process by assigning a project manager to draft the project charter, which outlines the project's objectives and scope. Option A is incorrect as requesting funding is not the immediate action; option C is not relevant since the statement of work is generally prepared later in the project lifecycle, and option D is incorrect because the PMO can assist in projects even if they are not exclusively project-focused.
