Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Log the issue in the Issue Register
All changes must be logged in the Issue Register before analysis. The Project Manager then assesses the impact and may escalate to the Project Board if it affects tolerances.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Implement the change immediately to satisfy the stakeholder
Why it's wrong here
Changes must be formally assessed and approved; implementing immediately bypasses control.
- ✓
Log the issue in the Issue Register
Why this is correct
The first step is to record the RFC in the Issue Register, then analyze and decide.
- ✗
Escalate directly to the Project Board
Why it's wrong here
Escalation only occurs if the change exceeds the Project Manager's delegation authority.
- ✗
Reject the change as it was not planned
Why it's wrong here
RFCs should be assessed, not automatically rejected.
