Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 225

A new project manager learns the work assigned to the team has already been decomposed to its lowest level. The project manager reviews the work and feels some additional, useful information is missing.
What should the project manager review?

Answer options

• A. The WBS dictionary
• B. The requirements traceability matrix
• C. The project charter and scope statement
• D. The business requirement documents (BRD)

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The WBS dictionary provides detailed descriptions of the components in the Work Breakdown Structure, including information that may not be included in the WBS itself. The other options, while useful in different contexts, do not specifically offer the additional details about work packages that the project manager is seeking.
