Exam PMP topic 1 question 163 discussion

In an Agile project, updating the restriction log is an important step to reflect any changes in the project's constraints. The situation described in the question involves a change in the team capacity, and this change should be reflected in the restriction log. By updating the restriction log, the agile project leader can communicate to the team and stakeholders that the team's capacity has reduced, and the new work requirements need to be adjusted accordingly.

B. Update the restriction log with the new team capacity. Since the agile team has lost two team members due to the customer reducing the budget, the project leader needs to update the restriction log with the new team capacity. The restriction log is an agile tool that documents any constraints that limit the team's capacity to deliver work. By updating the restriction log with the new team capacity, the team can adjust their workload and adjust their priorities accordingly to match their new capacity. This ensures that they can deliver the highest priority work within the constraints of their capacity.

IMO ption B focuses on updating internal documentation (the restriction log), option D emphasizes the importance of external communication with the customer. Both actions are important, but D directly addresses managing customer expectations, which is crucial in an agile environment. It directly involves the customer in understanding the impact of the budget reduction on the project's delivery.

D is the most agile response.
