QuestionQ112

Project Management Concepts

While managing a project, a PM is assigned to work on a second project. The second project becomes more complex and monopolizes the PM’s time. The PM learns that a similarly time-consuming project was executed previously in the organization. Which of the following actions should the PM take?

  • A Perform a root cause analysis.
  • B Organize a stakeholder meeting.
  • C Escalate the issue to the CCB.
  • D Contact the PMO for assistance.
Explanation

The Project Management Office (PMO) provides historical data, templates, best practices, and resource coordination to support project managers. When managing multiple complex projects, the PMO can leverage lessons learned from similar past projects and coordinate resources across the portfolio. Root cause analysis, stakeholder meetings, and CCB escalation do not directly address the workload or resource coordination issue.
