The question asks which process should be performed next after the project charter has been approved for a project investigating the feasibility of constructing a hydroelectric dam.

SAMPLE Q & A

2. The project aims to investigate the feasibility of constructing a hydroelectric dam from a
technical, economic, and social point of view. The project charter created by the project manager
on behalf of the project sponsor is now approved.
Which of the following processes should be performed next?
A. Develop Project Management Plan
B. Identify Risks
C. Identify Stakeholders
D. Develop Project Charter

Question

3. The correct answer is C
The Identify Stakeholders process is the process of identifying all people or organizations
impacted by the project and documenting relevant information regarding their interests,
involvement, and impact on project success. Both the Develop Project Charter process and the
Identify Stakeholders process are part of the Initiating Process Group which should be completed
before proceeding to the processes in the Planning Process Group. In this scenario, since the
project charter has been developed and approved, the Identify Stakeholders process should be
performed next.
