You are the project manager of the HGH Project. Thomas, your project sponsor, asked you to
submit status reports every week, but now he wants you to submit the status reports every other
week. What project management plan would you need to update to reflect this change from
Thomas?
A.
Scope management plan
B.
Performance management plan
C.
Communications management plan
D.
Project management plan
Explanation:
The communications management plan needs to be updated whenever there is a change in the
frequency, type, or audience of communication. The communication management plan is a
document that contains information that is required by the stakeholders. It also documents when
and how the information should be distributed. It describes the information delivery needs, its
format and level of detail. The communication management plan is contained in or is a subsidiary
of the project management plan.
Answer option D is incorrect. The project management plan is a collection of subsidiary plans,
including the communications management plan.
Answer option A is incorrect. The scope of the project is not being changed in this example, so
there is no need to update the plan.
Answer option B is incorrect. There is no plan by the name of performance management plan, so
this choice is incorrect.
