Exam PMP topic 1 question 566 discussion

The project manager should develop the project management plan by identifying the goal of each work product. This ensures that every deliverable is purposefully designed to support the project’s expected benefits, fostering a consistent and value-driven delivery process. Therefore, the best choice is B.

The correct answer is: A. Clarify project benefits with the sponsor. Explanation: To ensure that the project continually delivers the expected benefits, the project manager must first understand and align with the project’s intended benefits. The sponsor is typically responsible for defining and advocating for these benefits. By clarifying them with the sponsor, the project manager can ensure the project is planned, executed, and monitored in a way that consistently delivers value. Why not the other options? • B. Identify the goal of each work product: While understanding the goal of each work product is important for scope management, it does not directly ensure the project delivers the expected benefits. Benefits are outcomes, not just outputs

The project manager should clarify project benefits with the sponsor. This approach ensures that the project management plan remains aligned with the expected benefits throughout the project lifecycle. By maintaining clear communication with the sponsor, the project manager can ensure that the project's objectives and deliverables are consistently aligned with the business goals and expected outcomes.

The project management plan should be aligned with the expected benefits of the project, which are typically defined by the sponsor. By clarifying these benefits with the sponsor, the project manager ensures that the plan is focused on delivering the outcomes that are most important to the organization. (Option B) is important for task management, but it doesn't directly ensure that the project delivers the expected benefits.

Only sponsor can clarify and confirm the best benefits for the project

A. Clarify project benefits with the sponsor - Build a house (project) so that I may live in it peacefully(benefits)

A. Clarify project benefits with the sponsor

It seems the rationale is that A is to determine high level benefit of the project as a whole. While B helps to ensure the project continuously deliver the expected value.

B is correct, because Identify the goal is scope mgmt plan and collect requirements >define scope and create wbs. and in the scope management plan includes manage and control scope, its tricky question , we must know the process group . i think i am correct

A should be done before developing the project management plan. B is the part of the Project management plan.

A. Clarifying project benefits with the sponsor is an important step for the project manager to develop the project management plan to ensure that the project continually delivers the expected benefits. By having a clear understanding of the expected benefits, the project manager can develop the project management plan that aligns with these benefits, ensuring that the project delivers the expected value. Option B, identifying the goal of each work product, is important for developing a project plan that aligns with the project goals and objectives, but it does not directly address the continuous delivery of expected benefits.

Why not A?
