Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 376

A program is unable to use an office building for at least 6 months. The program sponsor provided office space in a distant location. The program sponsor has asked the program manager to provide an update on the effects of this unplanned change.

What should the program manager do first?

Answer options

• A. Require team members to work at the distant location until the local site is available
• B. Investigate the option for team members to work remotely until the local site is available
• C. Evaluate the impact of the location change to the program cost schedule, and risk
• D. Notify the program sponsor that work will cease until the local site is available

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because assessing the impact of the location change on cost, schedule, and risk is crucial for informed decision-making. Options A and B do not address the need for evaluation of the program's overall status, while option D unnecessarily halts progress without analysis.
