Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 1338

An organization is using a hybrid delivery approach for a business project. The product owner, the person who was also managing the project, was promoted to a more senior role. A new project lead has joined the project.

Which artifact should the project lead use to ensure that the project benefits have been identified?

Answer options

• A. Statement of work (SOW)
• B. Business case
• C. Product backlog
• D. Solution architecture

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, the Business case, as it outlines the project's benefits and justification for its execution. The Statement of Work (SOW) details the work to be performed, the Product backlog contains user stories and tasks, and the Solution architecture defines the technical structure, none of which primarily focus on identifying benefits.
