Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 557

During the course of a project, the project manager wants to ensure that the work carried out and the product being created do not deviate from the prescribed business value.
What should the project manager pay special attention to in order to achieve this goal?

Answer options

• A. Reviewing and updating the requirements management plan
• B. Carrying out quality audits and failure analyses
• C. Monitoring the work breakdown structure (WBS)
• D. Monitoring and updating the benefits realization plan

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the benefits realization plan directly addresses the project's alignment with business value. While reviewing the requirements management plan, conducting quality audits, and monitoring the WBS are important, they do not specifically ensure that the project's outcomes deliver the intended benefits.
