Few Mistakes in PMBOK 5 , I wrote to PMI:

 

Technical / Typographical Errors

1

1.    

Figure 3-5 P59 and Figure X1-1 P 467 are showing little contradictory information - project communication versus manage communication and manage project team.

Regarding work performance reports both figures are not synchronized with 47 processes’ flow diagrams or its input /outputs. These are showing work performance reports are input to develop project management plan or project management plan, while in 47 processes directly or indirectly work performance reports are not the input for project management plan.

Every where OPA is input to planning group processes, but this OPA neither having WPR or PD-updates

1.    

In fig 6-10, P 158, Notation shown SS – 15 days (Lag),   is wrong and contradictory with fig 6-11 P160 and also 1st paragraph of P159. It should be SS +15 days (Lag) in place of SS – 15 days (Lag)

 

 

2.    

Page 53 fig 3-3, ----- In between, Enterprise/organization and Customer , -- Teaming agreements is written, ---- this term is now not relevant with the main content of Knowledge Area (section 12), or in other words it is wrongly  written here. It should be removed from here or any suitable change is required.

 

 

3.    

Page 53 fig 3-3 – like that stakeholder management strategy is also non-relevant. 

Like that P421 fig A1-2 is a repetition. These flow diagrams are not revised wrt to changes in KA chapters of pmbok5.
