,PROJECT INTEGRATION MANAGEMENT (Q1–Q6)

impacts scope and cost baselines. What is the MOST appropriate
first action?
A. Immediately update the project schedule
B. Submit a change request through integrated change control
C. Inform the project team to proceed with adjustments
D. Revise the risk register only
Correct Answer: 🔴 B. Submit a change request through
integrated change control

approval, and traceability. Updating schedule or scope without
approval violates governance. Risk register updates may follow,
but are not the first action.

manager do next?

B. Begin executing the project to avoid delays
C. Facilitate stakeholder alignment workshops
D. Delay the project until consensus is reached

Explanation: 🔹 Early stakeholder alignment ensures shared
understanding of objectives and reduces conflicts. Escalation is
premature unless governance fails. Execution should not begin
without alignment.

formal documentation. What is the correct response?
A. Accept verbally to maintain goodwill
B. Implement immediately
C. Request formal change documentation
D. Ignore the request
Correct Answer: 🔴 C. Request formal change documentation

B. Enforce lessons learned integration into planning
