QuestionQ597

Project Management Concepts

During a demonstration, the product owner asks the team to add new scope to the backlog. What should the Scrum master do NEXT?

  • A Create a change request for the change advisory board.
  • B Work with the business analyst to document the new epic.
  • C Reject the change to prevent scope creep.
  • D Update the risk register and the work in the mitigation plan.
Explanation

New scope should be captured in the product backlog so the product owner can prioritize it against existing work. Documenting the request as an epic supports later refinement and planning; a change advisory board, automatic rejection as scope creep, and risk-register mitigation are not the normal immediate backlog-management response.
