executing

 

In your project, you are performing several actions to execute the project management plan and to complete the work defined in the project scope statement. You will be involved in: 

 

 

 

Choice 1

Taking corrective or preventive action to control the project performance

 

 

Choice 2

Settling or closing any contract agreement established for the project

 

 

Choice 3

Creating a document that will formally authorize the project

 

 

Choice 4

Collecting work performance information about the completion status of the deliverables and what has been accomplished

 

 

I thought choice 4 was obvious since the question is talking about "executing", however on a second look - choice 1 looked good too - as it is talking about "taking corrective or preventive action"  , which i interpreted as "implementing corrective or preventive action".

its NOT talking about recommending nor approving/rejecting corrective or preventive action., which makes it comfortably go into monitoring & controlling

although the correct answer is 4, i see a tie. what is it that breaks the tie in favour of 4?

 

 

only the phrase -- "to control the project performance",  - rejects its authenticity. the word control is of M&C.


One thing more - execution implements - "Appd change requests  covering - these 3actions" and exactly not implement or take actions (p 83, 7th last line pmbok)


I also went 1st for 4 then, 1 then now again for 4.
