Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 264

A project manager just completed a successful deployment and is preparing to transition the project to an operational state before starting closeout actions.

What should the project manager do to ensure that the project is ready to move to an operational state?

Answer options

• A. Review the project approval requirements in the project charter and confirm who will be approving the project.
• B. Meet with the project team to review the work breakdown structure (WBS) and confirm deliverables have been delivered.
• C. Refer to the project's work in progress (WIP) reports to ensure that there is no additional work in the backlog.
• D. Develop a plan to repay the technical debt incurred during the project and ensure that the project sponsor agrees with the plan.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because it involves confirming that all project deliverables have been completed, which is essential for a successful transition to operational status. Options A, C, and D focus on approval processes, backlog management, and technical debt, which are important but not directly related to confirming the readiness of project deliverables for operations.
