Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 705

A compliance strategy was created during the planning phase of a project. During execution, the project manager left the organization and another project manager was assigned to the team.

What should the project manager do first to ensure the project is compliant?

Answer options

• A. Review the organizational process assets (OPAs) for compliance topics.
• B. Meet with the team to discuss compliance concerns.
• C. Review the compliance strategy and version history.
• D. Meet with the project sponsor to discuss their compliance concerns.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because reviewing the compliance strategy and version history provides the new project manager with essential insights into the established compliance requirements. The other options, while important, do not prioritize understanding the existing compliance framework, which is crucial for effective management.
