Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 379

What would prevent a program manager from completing program closure once a program has been completed?

Answer options

• A. Incomplete realization of all program benefits
• B. Failure to update the benefits register
• C. Not obtaining program steering committee approval
• D. Not updating the financial management plan

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because if all program benefits are not fully realized, it may prevent the program manager from officially closing the program. Options B, C, and D, while important, do not directly stop the closure process as long as benefits are realized, which is the primary focus for completion.
