Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 208
Mike is the program manager of the NHQ Program. Mike and a vendor are in disagreement over the deliverable the vendor has created for Mike's program. Mike does not believe the vendor has correctly created the deliverable, while the vendor is adamant that his company has indeed completed the contract. Both parties have documented their stance in the debate.
This is an example of what?
Answer options
- A. Breach of contract
- B. Issue
- C. Risk
- D. Claim
Correct answer: B
Explanation
This scenario illustrates an 'Issue' because it involves a disagreement between two parties about the deliverable's quality, which may impact the project. A 'Breach of contract' would imply a failure to meet the contractual obligations, while 'Risk' pertains to potential future problems, and 'Claim' typically refers to a formal assertion of a right or demand for something, which isn’t the case here.
