Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 477

When a project is in its final stage, the project manager will request from the team to prepare a delivery acceptance document.
What is the importance of this document to the project manager?

Answer options

• A. Needed to close the work breakdown structure (WBS).
• B. Needed to share it with the stakeholders.
• C. Needed to close out the project or a phase.
• D. Needed to release the team at the end of the project.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The delivery acceptance document is crucial for officially closing out the project or a phase, ensuring that all deliverables meet the agreed-upon criteria. Options A and B are incorrect because they do not pertain directly to project closure, and option D, while related to team release, does not encompass the broader closure process required for project completion.
