CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 161

A few weeks before a project is scheduled to be completed, the client asks to add a new feature to the product that is being developed. The project manager analyzes the project schedule and determines the feature can be implemented quite easily without affecting the completion date. Which of the following should the project manager do FIRST?

Answer options

• A. Escalate the change to the CCB.
• B. Review the requested change.
• C. Document the change recommendations.
• D. Validate the implementation of the requested change.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The first step in managing a change request is to review the requested change to understand its implications and feasibility. If the project manager doesn't assess the change first, they cannot accurately determine its impact on the project or proceed with proper documentation or validation.
