D is correct as per me .. bcos, the aim of PIR is to identify if the project objective has been achived or not. But here the question is about effctiveness of PIR. Effectivenss of PIR can be measured in terms of learnings implemented from PIR.

So which is actually correct "C" or "D" - by seeing the word "was effective" - anybody who can explain - thinking both practical & exam point of view?

Selected Answer: D
Realizing project outcomes (Option C) is a measure of the project’s success, not necessarily the effectiveness of the PIR. Therefore, implementing the lessons learned (Option D) is the best indicator of a PIR’s effectiveness.

For me the correct answer is D, because the question is asking about the effectiveness of the Post-implementation review not the project it's self. The post-implementation review is conducted to ensure project outcomes have been realized and lessons learned to enhance the project management practices for the future. That is why i choose D

So guys i went to goggle and typed the effectiveness of PIR and wee what came out below A Post-Implementation Review (PIR) is conducted after completing a project. Its purpose is to evaluate whether project objectives were met, to determine how effectively the project was run, to learn lessons for the future, and to ensure that the organization gets the greatest possible benefit from the project..... i think C is the answer

"Lessons learned were implemented" would be the BEST indicator that the post-implementation review was effective, as it shows that the results of the review were actually put into practice and contributed to improving the organization's processes and procedures.

Cause there is a report that management has approved that the PIR had meet the objectives of the project. This is the best to deteremine the effectiveness of the PIR.

What would actually be best to determine if a PIR was effective ? Management Approval of the PIR report, outcome realisation or implementation of lessons learnt? The question here is about EFFECTIVENESS, so does management approval of the PIR report point to the BEST solution? Because there is a report that management has approved does that shows that PIR was EFFECTIVE? C and D are both objectives of PIR. Can they be solutions to the given question. If one of them is the answer, what makes one better than the other since both are given in CRM 27th edition 3.8 Post-Implementation Review ( pages 435-439).
