Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 579

A project is currently in the execution phase. Because of the complexity of the project and the large number of regulatory requirements involved, the project manager decides to hold a management review with senior executives to ensure the successful implementation of project deliverables.

What should the project manager review during the management review to ensure the meeting is effective?

Answer options

• A. Specialized reports created specifically for the meeting as per directions from the project sponsor.
• B. Potential changes to the project's strategy and the feedback from senior executives.
• C. The deliverables that are performing well and those that need more work.
• D. Metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs) that objectively reflect the status of deliverables.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because metrics and KPIs provide quantifiable data that can help assess the progress and performance of project deliverables. Options A, B, and C, while relevant, do not focus on the objective evaluation of deliverables which is crucial for an effective management review.
