Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 1276

In a global project, the main definitions were developed in country A, and the delivery of the project will be completed in phases in countries B, C, and D. Country B discovers that one of the legal requirements was not addressed.

What should the project manager have done to avoid this situation?

Answer options

• A. Managed risk mitigation strategies specific to each country.
• B. Asked procurement to assign resources located in each country.
• C. Selected countries that had similar regulatory requirements.
• D. Identified the regulatory differences among the countries.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because identifying regulatory differences is essential to ensure compliance in each country. If the project manager had done this, they could have avoided overlooking legal requirements in country B. The other options do not directly address the need to understand and adapt to different legal frameworks across countries.
