Question 180

A component project of a program is completed, and will provide the intended incremental benefits.

How should the program manager proceed with the component transition?

    Correct Answer: C

    When a component project of a program is completed and is set to deliver its intended incremental benefits, the program manager should update the program roadmap to reflect this significant milestone. The program roadmap is a high-level overview of the program’s key deliverables and timelines, and updating it to show the completion of a component project helps in tracking the overall progress of the program. This clear communication to stakeholders about the achievement of a key objective helps in fitting it into the broader context of the program's goals.

Discussion
MusfiqOption: A

According to SPM (4th edition, page 101, first paragraph) the first activity to do for transition is getting approval from program steering committee after consultation with customer & sponsor. Also, program roadmap update is part of component transition process. According to SPM (4th edition, section 6.1.11, Page 77) says about ensuring program-level communication of the component's closure to key stakeholders. Though, it hard to conclude however it is understood updating the stakeholder engagement plan will inform communication including key stakeholders. Therefore, A seems more sensible though I initially though C would be an answer.
