Question 38

Which is the base product against which the Project Board can assess progress, issues and ongoing viability questions?

    Correct Answer: B

    The Project Initiation Documentation (PID) is the base product against which the Project Board can assess progress, issues, and ongoing viability questions. The PID defines the project in detail, providing direction and scope, and forms a 'contract' between the Project Manager and the Project Board. This thorough documentation allows the Project Board to effectively evaluate the project's performance against established plans and objectives.

Discussion
FireyOption: B

The purpose of the Project Initiation Documentation (PID) is to define the project in detail so it can be used by the Project Board to assess the project and see how it performed. The Project Initiation Documentation gives the direction and scope (Project Plan) of the project and along with the Stage Plan forms the ‘contract’ between the Project Manager and the Project Board.
