Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 731

During a project status meeting with senior managers, the project manager gives an update about the status of a deliverable. Some of the senior managers claim not to know about the deliverable.

What should the project manager do next?

Answer options

• A. Check if these stakeholders attend regular project meetings.
• B. Meet with these stakeholders to review the project charter.
• C. Review the project charter to validate this claim
• D. Validate if the project charter changed from the original one.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct action is to meet with the stakeholders to review the project charter, as this document outlines the project's objectives and deliverables, ensuring everyone is aligned. Checking their attendance at meetings (A) or validating claims (C and D) does not directly address the issue of their unfamiliarity with the deliverable.
