Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 678

A company is building a minimum viable product (MVP). How can the project manager help to ensure the company builds a high-quality product?

Answer options

• A. Partner with a qualified third-party vendor to develop a product that meets the requirements.
• B. Hire a quality engineering leader to drive the strategy.
• C. Determine the quality metrics for the product and recommend options for improvements.
• D. Ask the product manager to spend more time improving quality.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because establishing quality metrics is essential for understanding product quality and identifying areas for enhancement. Options A and B focus on external partnerships and leadership roles, which do not directly involve the project manager's responsibility in quality assurance. Option D suggests an increase in the product manager's time allocation, but it doesn't address strategic quality management directly.
