Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 1055

Toward the end of a project, the project manager did not receive approval from a key stakeholder because the necessary deliverables were not functioning as expected. What should the project manager do next?

Answer options

• A. Review the stakeholder engagement plan.
• B. Review the requirements traceability matrix.
• C. Review the quality management plan.
• D. Review the work breakdown structure (WBS).

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as the requirements traceability matrix helps ensure that all project requirements are met and can identify where the deliverables are lacking. Options A, C, and D do not directly address the issues with the deliverables' functionality and thus are less relevant in this situation.
