PMI Exam Questions

Who is correct in this scenario?

Nancy is the project manager of the NHH project. She and the project team have identified a
significant risk in the project during the qualitative risk analysis process. Bob is familiar with the
technology that the risk is affecting and proposes to Nancy a solution to the risk event. Nancy tells

Bob that she has noted his response, but the risk really needs to pass through the quantitative risk
analysis process before creating responses. Bob disagrees and ensures Nancy that his response
is most appropriate for the identified risk. Who is correct in this scenario?

A.
Bob is correct. Bob is familiar with the technology and the risk event so his response should be
implemented.

B.
Bob is correct. Not all risk events have to pass the quantitative risk analysis process to develop
effective risk responses.

C.
Nancy is correct. All risks of significant probability and impact should pass the quantitative risk
analysis process before risk responses are created.

D.
Nancy is correct. Because Nancy is the project manager she can determine the correct
procedures for risk analysis and risk responses. In addition, she has noted the risk response that
Bob recommends.
