Exam PMP topic 1 question 28 discussion

I agree with D. The questions get tricky sometimes with the end, I think thats really the trick to beating this exam. This particular question asks "What should they have done?" Not "What should they do" or "what should they do next" The issue is that neither of them know how to operate it. If this was a design flaw that made it over-complicated, that would be an issue where the team could get with operations and train them, but the issue here is that its such a complex software by nature that the team can build it but not know how to operate it/how things interact with each other. A was recommended, but having the team meet with operations through any point in the project is usually a net negative for both the team and operations, and in this case, meeting won't do anything because the team also doesn't know how to work the software.

D is the right answer

In my opinion, I feel that the project manager should have allocated time for training sessions on the BMS (Building management system) early on within the course of the project development and planning stages so that the operations manager would be well equipped and ready during the handover phase

first i chose A, but a is the solution right the time this issue happen, and the question is about " what should" to prevent this happen. so best chose is D

My answer is D, but I think B is close. The question is tricky. This doesn't say why the teams can't operate the system. Maybe the system is too complicated to understand, so it should be simplified (B) or members need more time and resources to understand it (D). B may cost more and changes specifications, so I prefer D.

First I went with A since as a leader you just gather folks to make a decision. Later on D make more scene since they need training.

we dont know if training is the answer, or if we have money budgeted or enough (contingency) for the training of many people in a team. We need to find answers to solve the issue, or check the risk register to see if we planned for this risk. What if we find out that there is something wrong with the system, and after we spend money on training, it does not solve the issue.

Allocated proper resources for training on BMS in the project plan

D. Allocated proper resources for training on BMS in the project plan

D. As a leader providing training for your team is the best way to remove any impediments in the project

Properly allocating resources for training on the BMS is essential to ensure that both teams have the necessary knowledge and skills to operate the system effectively. This should have been included in the project plan from the early stages of the project. Adequate training would have prepared both teams for a smooth transition during the handover phase, reducing the risk of schedule delays and ensuring the system's proper operation.

D allocate training resource

D. Allocated proper resources for training on BMS in the project plan

Voted D

d training

Why not B? They should design a product that they themselves know how to use it, if not adjust asap

C. Allocated a dedicated handover team at early stages of the project
