Within a project, senior management is requesting project information so they can analyze the data to make project decisions. What information should the project manager provide so that senior management can get a broader view of the project?
Answer: B
When senior management requests project information for decision-making, they need concise and high-level insights that provide a comprehensive overview of the project's progress and current status. The information should help them understand key achievements, critical points, and any potential issues or risks that might affect the project's success. A milestones status report provides a summary of the major achievements and critical points in the project timeline. Milestones represent significant events or deliverables, and their status can give senior management a clear view of the project's progress towards its goals. This report highlights whether the project is on track, behind schedule, or ahead, and identifies any key issues that might need management's attention.

A project manager is assigned to manage a project for a previous client of the company. The project manager was warned that this client will likely try to add extra scope to the project without considering the impact of change on time, cost, quality, and risks. Which action should the project manager take to help plan and manage the budget and resources?
Answer: D
D. Include a scope change process and review the project charter. The project manager should include a scope change process that outlines the steps for requesting, evaluating, approving, and managing scope changes. This process should be communicated to the client and the project team to ensure everyone understands how changes will be managed. The project manager should also review the project charter, which outlines the project's goals, objectives, and scope. This will help ensure that any proposed scope changes are aligned with the project's objectives and goals.
