CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 124

While managing a project, a PM is assigned to work on a second project. The second project becomes more complex and monopolizes the PM’s time. The PM learns that a similarly time-consuming project was executed previously in the organization. Which of the following actions should the PM take?

Answer options

• A. Perform a root cause analysis.
• B. Organize a stakeholder meeting.
• C. Escalate the issue to the CCB.
• D. Contact the PMO for assistance.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct action is to contact the PMO for assistance, as they can provide resources and guidance based on previous experiences with similar projects. Performing a root cause analysis or organizing a stakeholder meeting may not address the immediate need for help with the complex project. Escalating the issue to the CCB is also not appropriate, as this typically involves formal changes rather than seeking assistance.
