Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Project Manager
Why it's wrong here
The Project Manager runs the project day to day and cannot independently assure their own management. It is tempting because the role owns delivery, but assurance from a business perspective is provided by the Project Board's business assurance role, not the Project Manager.
- ✓
Project Assurance
Why this is correct
Project Assurance independently monitors all three stakeholder interests — business, user and supplier — on behalf of the Project Board. The business perspective specifically confirms the project remains justified and aligned with the Business Case, which is the assurance the stem demands.
- ✗
Team Manager
Why it's wrong here
The Team Manager manages product delivery for a team and reports progress, providing no business-perspective assurance. It is tempting because team managers supply status information, but business assurance rests with the Project Board's business assurance role, not the Team Manager.
- ✗
Project Support
Why it's wrong here
Project Support provides administrative and tooling assistance to the project management team, holding no assurance remit. It is tempting because support staff interact with governance artefacts, but business assurance belongs to the Project Board's business assurance role, not Project Support.
