The first action the project manager should take is to log and address the issue to ensure it is tracked and corrected promptly. This ensures the issue is formally documented and tracked, providing a record of the problem and making it visible for corrective actions. This step also includes addressing the stakeholder's concern and taking immediate corrective action. This action ensures that the current problem is acknowledged, documented, and set for resolution, allowing the project manager to address the stakeholder's immediate concern effectively. Following this, the project manager can then take steps to develop standards for document quality control to prevent similar issues in the future.

Selected Answer: B
Developing a standard for document quality control is essential to ensure that all project documentation meets a certain level of quality and accuracy. This standard should include guidelines for reviewing and validating documentation to prevent errors such as references to unrelated products. It helps establish consistency and reliability in project documentation. While the other options may also be relevant in certain contexts, developing a standard for document quality control directly addresses the issue raised by the stakeholder and provides a systematic approach to prevent similar problems in the future. It is a proactive measure to improve the overall quality of project deliverables.
