Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 142

A project is assigned to a qualified project manager by the program manager. The client rejects the project manager due to a lack of proper qualifications to manage such a project.
What should the program manager do next?

Answer options

• A. Reassess the project manager's credentials
• B. Assign a different project manager
• C. Review the skill requirements of the project
• D. Apply the competence assessment techniques to resolve the issue

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because applying competence assessment techniques helps to evaluate the project manager's skills and determine if they can fulfill the project's requirements. Options A and C suggest re-evaluating credentials or skills but do not actively resolve the issue. Option B may be a solution, but the assessment of the current project manager's capabilities is essential before making such a change.
