PK0-004 Question #917: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is C: Planning. Change control processes and the change management plan are formally established during Planning, where baselines and control mechanisms are defined before execution begins.
Question
A project team is performing change control on a project. During which of the following project activities does this normally occur?
Options
- AMonitoring
- BExecution
- CPlanning
- DClosing
Explanation
Change control processes and the change management plan are formally established during Planning, where baselines and control mechanisms are defined before execution begins.
Common mistakes.
- A. Monitoring is the phase where project performance is tracked against baselines; while variances may surface here, the formal change control process itself is defined earlier in Planning.
- B. Execution is where project work is carried out and change requests may be submitted, but the change control procedures that govern those requests were established in Planning.
- D. Closing involves finalizing deliverables, obtaining acceptance, and archiving documents - introducing change control at this stage is outside the appropriate project lifecycle window.
