Exam PMP topic 1 question 649 discussion

D. Meet with the IT team to evaluate how fast the software license can be renewed. The project manager's first course of action should be to determine the feasibility of renewing the license for the software that is critical to the project's success. Meeting with the IT team can provide a better understanding of the options available for renewing the license and the timeline for doing so. Depending on the outcome of this discussion, the project manager can then explore alternative solutions, such as finding a temporary replacement software or postponing the tasks that require the expired software until the license is renewed. It is important to avoid making hasty decisions that could impact the project's timeline and quality.

The project manager should first **meet with the IT team to evaluate how fast the software license can be renewed**. This is the most direct and efficient way to address the issue at hand. The other options may not solve the problem directly or may lead to delays or inefficiencies in the project. So, the correct answer is **D**.

D Then B : In a situation where a project team member informs the project manager that the software license needed for calculations has expired, the project manager should take the following immediate action: D. Meet with the IT team to evaluate how fast the software license can be renewed.

This is just like one problem in PMI studyhall. It's actually B even though there's the word "evaluate". I REPEAT. FROM PMI STUDYHALL AND REALLY SAME QUESTION. Let's examine the majority vote (now): Let's say you met with the IT team and evaluated how long the software can be restored, your next action would be tell the team to perform other alternatives to clalculate. It would make sense to tell the team first to put the work back on track first rather than doing all the evaluations. WORRY ABOUT THE LICENSE LATER, MAKE SURE THE WORK IS BEING DONE FIRST. IT'S B!

D. Meet with the IT team to evaluate how fast the software license can be renewed

Let's restore tool's availabily

First thing to do, evaluate and then act.

Why not B so that the project can continue while D is being worked on?
