Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) — Question 249

A projects aim, from a business perspective, is moving an organization from one level to another to achieve a specific objective. What is the goal for a projects successful completion?

Answer options

• A. Current state
• B. Budgeted state
• C. Planned state
• D. Future state

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as the future state represents the desired outcome after the project is completed. The other options, such as current state, budgeted state, and planned state, refer to conditions or projections before the project's completion rather than the ultimate goal of achieving a new level of success.
