CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 231

A project team is developing an application that will allocate a building's parking spaces. The building owner does not agree with using corporate colors in the application and has blocked the release of the beta version for testing. Which of the following BEST describes what the project manager should have done in the initiation phase to prevent this issue?

Answer options

• A. Review of existing artifacts
• B. Development of an issue log
• C. Identification and assessment of stakeholders
• D. Establishment of accepted communication channels

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as identifying and assessing stakeholders early helps to understand their preferences and concerns, which is critical in preventing conflicts. Options A, B, and D, while useful in project management, do not directly address the need to engage stakeholders and their interests effectively.
