PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) — Question 149

Company A is working on implementing a new platform with multiple stakeholders. The business analyst has gathered the requirements and established a baseline. However, scope creep is a persistent problem.
What could the business analyst have established to help manage this situation?

Answer options

• A. Configuration management system
• B. Sponsor signoff
• C. Change control process
• D. Communication plan

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Implementing a Change control process is essential for managing scope creep as it allows for proper evaluation and approval of changes to the project scope. While a Configuration management system, Sponsor signoff, and Communication plan are important components of project management, they do not specifically address the management of changes to the project scope like a Change control process does.
