A project manager is well informed on the industry standards of the organization and believes that they are not reflected in the project deliverables. What should the project manager review next?
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.
Organizational process assets (OPAs) include the organization's policies, procedures, and guidelines that are relevant to the project. Reviewing OPAs will help the project manager understand the industry standards and organizational requirements that should be reflected in the project deliverables.
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.
Adigun
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.
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.
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.
