Could it be A? Since it is the first planning meeting and the question is asking what the PM should do first. Proposing a MVP can be part of the contingency plan.

The correct answer is D. Ask the team to propose a minimum viable product (MVP) to meet the date. When faced with a project that has too many requirements to meet the deadline, the project manager's first step should be to ask the team to propose a minimum viable product (MVP) to meet the deadline. The MVP is the minimum set of features that will deliver value to the customer and can be delivered within the given timeframe. The team should focus on delivering the core functionality of the product, leaving non-essential features for later releases.

Ask the team to propose a minimum viable product (MVP) to meet the date. By focusing on delivering an MVP, the team can prioritize the most critical features that provide value to the customer while ensuring the project stays on track. This approach allows for a functional product by the deadline and can be expanded upon in future iterations. It’s a smart way to balance quality and timelines effectively.
