Exam PMP topic 1 question 740 discussion

I think d better answer

To meet regulatory requirements, the project manager should ensure that the software undergoes validation processes to confirm its compliance with relevant standards and regulations. This involves testing and assessing the software to ensure that it adheres to the specified requirements, guidelines, and safety standards applicable to the control of airplanes during flights. This validation process is essential for demonstrating that the software meets the necessary regulatory criteria and can be deployed safely and effectively.

#D. The question was asking " What should the PM do...", validating the software is complient with standards and regulation is the best option. Notice the answer will pivot to #B if the question is "What the PM should do first...."

D. Validate that the software is compliant with standards and regulations. In a project involving software development for critical systems like airplane control, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements is paramount. To meet these requirements, the project manager should validate that the software adheres to the relevant standards and regulations. This typically involves a thorough verification and validation process, which may include compliance testing, audits, inspections, and documentation reviews. It's important to have a well-defined plan for compliance verification and validation throughout the project to ensure that the software meets all necessary regulatory standards and requirements.

D. Validate that the software is compliant with standards and regulations. Meeting regulatory requirements, especially in safety-critical domains like aviation, is of utmost importance. To ensure compliance, the project manager should validate that the software adheres to the established standards and regulations. This typically involves extensive testing, inspections, and documentation to provide evidence that the software meets the required compliance criteria.

D. Validate that the software is compliant with standards and regulations

Voting for B as they need to perform B to to D. By identifying potential threats or gaps in compliance, the project manager can gain a clear understanding of the specific regulatory requirements that need to be met. This process helps in creating a comprehensive validation plan, outlining the criteria and benchmarks against which the software's compliance will be measured during the validation phase (option D).

According to chatGPT: D. Validate that the software is compliant with standards and regulations. As a helpful assistant, I would recommend that the project manager validate that the software is compliant with regulations. This should be done by conducting thorough testing and verification procedures to ensure that the software meets the necessary regulatory standards. It is also important to regularly review and update the software to ensure continuing compliance as regulations change over time. Asking HR to assign a compliance specialist to the team and determining potential threats regarding compliance are also important steps, but they should not be prioritized over validating compliance with the regulations.

Has to be D since regulatory laws are not up for discussion and cannot be avoided or treated as a risk when it is a requirement.

Sorry do not understand for me it is D ... obviously!!!

As the project involves developing software for controlling airplanes during flights, compliance with regulatory requirements is crucial to ensure the safety of the passengers and the success of the project. The project manager should validate that the software meets the relevant regulations and standards. This can be achieved by engaging with compliance specialists, conducting compliance assessments, and seeking regulatory approvals. It is also important to ensure that the team is aware of the regulatory requirements and is trained in compliance procedures.

I will go for D

D. Validate that the software is compliant with standards and regulations.

Poorly worded options. B and D both seem correct. I am leaning towards B for 2 reasons: 1. Question asks "what should PM do to MEET the requirements". And it is clear from stem that requirements are new and not met as is. Hence, Validation won't help. 2. B says to Determine potential threats. Threats are negative risks. So you determine the risk and act on it using proper resposne plan.

I think B is correct

why not D? any thoughts ?
