Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 290

During the course of the project, several obstacles are identified that are preventing the project from moving forward.
What should the project manager do to remove the obstacles?

Answer options

• A. Have the project team work on other activities
• B. Implement plans to remove the obstacles
• C. Escalate to the project steering committee
• D. Prioritize the obstacles for resolution

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because implementing plans to remove obstacles directly addresses the issues hindering the project's progress.

Option D may help in organizing the resolution process but does not actively remove the obstacles.
