Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) — Question 176

The handoff of the first version of a software application to the operational team has taken a month longer than anticipated. How could this extended transition time have been avoided?

Answer options

• A. If the transition process was agreed upon during the build
• B. If the end-user documentation was more thorough
• C. If the operation team members were trained externally
• D. If the operations manager was invited to all sprint reviews

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because having an agreed-upon transition process during the build phase ensures that all parties are aligned on expectations and responsibilities, potentially reducing delays. Options B, C, and D, while beneficial, do not directly address the issue of transition planning and agreement, which is crucial for timely handoffs.
