Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 653
A project manager is managing a hybrid project. There is software in place to access the repository of project artifacts. However, a few stakeholders are reporting that they are unable to find the latest project schedule.
What should the project manager do?
Answer options
- A. Advise the project management office (PMO) that there is a resource gap for sharing project artifacts effectively.
- B. Make sure all stakeholders have access to the system and know where to find project artifacts.
- C. Escalate the issue to the steering committee and ask them to deal with the stakeholders’ lack of training.
- D. Send the project schedule via email to the stakeholders who need that information.
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is B because ensuring that all stakeholders have access and know how to find project artifacts addresses the root cause of the problem. Option A does not directly resolve the stakeholders' issue, C shifts responsibility instead of providing a solution, and D is not sustainable as it does not improve access to future updates.
