PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) — Question 135

A project manager is trying to realize benefits from new material on an adaptive project. This is the first time the project team is using the material so the team does not have information to identify and analyze risks. A team member informs the project manager that a local university has recently published a research journal on the same material.

Where should the project manager find this information?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as commercial risk databases contain compiled information and research that can help assess risks associated with the new material. The other options, while potentially useful, do not specifically provide the targeted risk insights that a commercial risk database would offer for this situation.
