Exam PMP topic 1 question 658 discussion

OPAs is the input of Quality management plan which includes feasible industry standards, comany strategy. So I think A is better than D.

Question says, PM is well informed about the industry standards of organization. So he need not review OPA again. The Quality Management Plan outlines the processes and procedures that will be used to ensure that the project deliverables meet the required quality standards. By reviewing the Quality Management Plan, the project manager can assess whether the industry standards of the organization are adequately incorporated into the plan and if there are any gaps that need to be addressed. This will help ensure that the project's deliverables align with the organization's best practices and industry standards.

OPA shud b the right choice

industry standards it seems the quality

The Project Manager should review the Organizational Process Assets (OPAs) next because they contain industry standards and best practices that can be used to improve the project deliverables.

A According to PMBOK, the project manager, in this scenario, should review the project's current state against industry standards, identify any gaps or discrepancies, assess the impact on project deliverables, and determine necessary corrective actions to align the project with organizational standards and best practices.

Quality management plan

The project manager should review the Organizational Process Assets (OPAs) to understand the industry standards and processes that are applicable to the organization. OPAs include the policies, procedures, and knowledge repositories that can provide guidance on how to align project deliverables with industry standards. This review will help the project manager ensure that the project is in compliance with organizational expectations and industry best practices.

A is the answer. you need all the documents and process to proceed.

Organization Process Assets according to the PMBOK are Plan, processes, policies, procedures, and knowledge bases that are specific to and used by the performing organization, so I go with answer A.

A. Organizational process assets (OPAs) Organizational process assets include documentation of the company's standard processes, practices, and templates. By reviewing the OPAs, the project manager can ensure that the industry standards, best practices, and other institutional knowledge that the organization follows are being incorporated into the project.

I think it's A. OPA's will be an input to most projects using the QMP. Needs broader approach.

D. Quality management plan

First of all, industry standards are EEF, not OPA. Secondly, please refer to PMBOK: "Quality management plan. Described in Section 8.1.3.1. The quality management plan contains the applicable industry standards and codes the project is required to follow"

Organizational process assets are tangible resources used by an organization to guide the management of its projects and operations. They include things like templates, contracts, processes, reports, and financial statements.

I vote D

I would go with D. The manager is aware of the organization standards, so he needs to review the quality management plan to see why they have not been included in the plan. It is not about what the standards are, it is about why deliverables are not satisfying those standards.
