PMP Exam Dumps - Project Management Professional (2025 Version)

 The creation of a new department and the request from its manager to be involved in project communications necessitates a review and potential update of the communications management plan. According to best practices in project management, when there are changes in the organizational structure or new stakeholders emerge, it is important to perform a stakeholder analysis to understand their needs and expectations. This analysis will inform any necessary updates to the communications management plan to ensure that all relevant parties are included in the communication cycles, and that the information flow remains effective and aligned with the project’s objectives123.

When a feature has been prioritized by the project sponsor over other critical security patches, the project manager should assess the situation. While it’s essential to consider the sponsor’s priorities, the project manager must also evaluate the impact of delaying critical security patches. Pushing back on the feature allows the project manager to advocate for the security patches’ urgency and ensure that immediate priorities are addressed14.

When multiple stakeholders and organizational layers are involved, it's essential to have a well-defined Communications Management Plan. This plan outlines what information will be shared, how, when, and with whom. It integrates both agile practices (e.g., information radiators, daily standups) and organizational needs (e.g., formal reports, PMO templates).

PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition emphasizes tailoring communication strategies based on stakeholder needs and context. Agile teams are encouraged to remain transparent and adapt communication forms to suit stakeholders (Agile Practice Guide, Chapter 6).

Option A ignores the need for comprehensive documentation.

Option B is incomplete and doesn’t cover all communication formats.

 Defining a minimum viable product (MVP) is a core concept in delivering value early and continuously, which aligns with the agile principles of project management. An MVP allows the project manager and stakeholders to understand the product’s vision more clearly by focusing on the core functionalities that will meet the customer’s needs and provide immediate value. This approach also facilitates early feedback, which is crucial for iterative development and continuous improvement.
