CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 105
A PM is working on the preliminary scope statement and identifies that this project has the same approach as another project that was completed last year. Which of the following actions would the PM MOST likely perform?
Answer options
- A. Call the previous PM for advice on risks and issues.
- B. Ask the project sponsor to provide previous final project report results.
- C. Complete the project charter using the other PM's subject matter expertise.
- D. Use existing artifacts and accommodate based on the current project success criteria.
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D because using existing artifacts allows the PM to leverage past experiences while adapting to the unique requirements of the current project. Options A and B focus on seeking advice or past documentation, which may not directly contribute to the immediate scope development. Option C incorrectly assumes the previous PM's expertise is sufficient to complete the project charter without considering the current project's specific context.
