CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 45

A project manager needs to update the project sponsor and senior stakeholders about the progress of a project. Which of the following tools will the project manager MOST likely use?

Answer options

• A. Dashboard
• B. Gantt chart
• C. Work breakdown structure
• D. Requirements Traceability Matrix

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as a Dashboard provides a visual representation of project metrics and progress, making it ideal for updates to stakeholders. While a Gantt chart (B) shows timelines and tasks, it is less effective for high-level updates. A Work Breakdown Structure (C) outlines project tasks but does not present progress. The Requirements Traceability Matrix (D) tracks requirements but is not designed for progress reporting.
