Exam PMP topic 1 question 607 discussion

This is B

When facing a delay in a key component delivered by a third-party vendor, it's essential for the project manager to assess the impact on the project schedule and communicate this information to relevant stakeholders. This includes identifying and managing expectations, exploring possible mitigation strategies, and keeping all involved parties informed about the situation. Understanding the implications of the delay and communicating effectively contribute to proactive risk management and stakeholder engagement.

This option offers several advantages: Comprehensive assessment: Understanding who are the impacted stakeholders and their expectations helps determine the full scope of the delay's impact. Informed decision-making: Assessing the delay thoroughly, considering its specific consequences and potential mitigation strategies, allows for proactive and informed decisions. Transparent communication: Communicating with stakeholders openly about the delay, its impact, and planned responses fosters trust and collaboration.

B. Ensure that relevant stakeholders and expectations are identified and assess the component delay

1st action is to expedite the problem.

Voy con B.

B. Ensure that relevant stakeholders and expectations are identified and assess the component delay

Going with B. While it may seem like a logical step to try to speed up the delivery, it is important to consider that the vendor may have valid reasons for the delay that are beyond their control. Pressuring the vendor for expedited delivery without understanding the root cause of the delay or the potential impact on the quality of the component may not be the best approach.

This happens in my job. We have no control over the external vendor once the contract is in place, letting the stakeholder know the risk is all I can do.

I think B

Vendor has said he cannot deliver as planned. So why ask him to expedite something he cannot deliver? It is better to evaluate the situation and come with a possible solution.So C is correct

from the question I feel the vendor cant do anything regarding the delay - so I will go with B.

i think B is the correct answer, because the PM new in project so he will ensure all stakeholder are identified and assess the component delay with them

You need to analysis before doing anything.

I think the answer is C, it's the only step that does the assessment & impact of the problem. please correct if you think wrong.

Looks B is the correct answer

How come Asking expediting delivery is going to solve issue ? if vendor can deliver the component, then why he would announce delay. Situation is vendor can not deliver component & then next step is to find alternate option
