Question

Joan is the project manager of the BTT project for her company. She has worked with her project to create risk responses for both positive and negative risk events within the project. As a result of this process Joan needs to update the project document updates. She has updated the assumptions log as a result of the findings and risk responses, but what other documentation will need to be updated as an output of risk response planning?

Options

  • ALessons learned
  • BScope statement
  • CRisk Breakdown Structure
  • DTechnical documentation

Why each option

As an output of the Plan Risk Responses process, technical documentation must be updated alongside the assumptions log to capture how risk responses affect technical approaches and specifications.

ALessons learned

Lessons learned are captured at phase or project completion, not generated as an immediate output during the Plan Risk Responses process.

BScope statement

The scope statement defines the project's work boundaries and is not a standard document updated as a direct output of risk response planning unless a scope change is formally approved.

CRisk Breakdown Structure

The Risk Breakdown Structure is a hierarchical tool used during risk identification and categorization, not a document updated as an output of risk response planning.

DTechnical documentationCorrect

Technical documentation is a required project document update as an output of the Plan Risk Responses process because risk responses can alter technical methods, designs, or specifications used in the project. When a risk response changes how a technical task is executed, the corresponding technical records must reflect that change to keep project documentation accurate and consistent. This ensures that team members working on technical deliverables have current information aligned with the approved risk responses.
