Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 1412

A technical manager newly appointed by the client, visits the project site to verify the project deliverables. The technical manager feels that the project manager has not been providing enough information.
What should the project manager do first to resolve this situation?

Answer options

• A. Update the issue log and escalate to the project sponsor
• B. Identify the lack of information as a risk and update the risk register
• C. Schedule more frequent meetings with the technical manager
• D. Review and update the stakeholder engagement plan

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because reviewing and updating the stakeholder engagement plan will help ensure better communication and information sharing with the technical manager. The other options either escalate the issue without addressing communication, focus on risk management that may not be necessary at this stage, or suggest meetings without first establishing a clear engagement strategy.
