Which of the following is an input to the Direct and Manage Project Execution Process?

Question

Options

• AApproved corrective actions
• BApproved contract documentation
• CWork performance information
• DRejected change requests

• A
  72% (42)
• B
  9% (5)
• C
  3% (2)
• D
  16% (9)

Explanation

Approved corrective actions (A) are a direct input to the Direct and Manage Project Execution process because they represent previously authorized decisions - approved through Integrated Change Control - that the team must now implement to bring performance back in line with the project management plan.

Option B (Approved contract documentation) is incorrect; contract documents are inputs to procurement processes, not to directing and managing project work execution.

Option C (Work performance information) is wrong because it flows the opposite direction - it is an output of Direct and Manage Project Execution, produced as the team carries out the work.

Option D (Rejected change requests) are incorrect by definition: rejected requests mean no action is authorized, so they have no role as inputs driving execution activities.

Memory tip: Think of the inputs to this process as "what you've been told to do." Approved corrective actions, preventive actions, and defect repairs all carry the word approved - they've cleared the change control gate and are now orders to execute. If it's a rejection or an output (like performance data), it doesn't feed into execution.
