CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management) Practice Exam

What do project managers and their teams do during tailoring?

1. Adjust the project budget and resources

2. Change the project scope as necessary

3. Consider each process's appropriateness to their specific situation

4. Choose the project team members based on skill requirements

The correct answer is: Consider each process's appropriateness to their specific situation

Project managers and their teams do not typically handle adjusting the project budget and resources during tailoring. This task usually falls under the responsibility of the project sponsor or other higher level management. Similarly, changing the project scope is not a typical task for project managers and their teams during tailoring. This action would require significant evaluation and decision-making from upper management. Additionally, selecting project team members based on skill requirements is a responsibility that usually falls under the project manager's role before the tailoring stage, and would not typically be done during tailoring. The most appropriate action for project managers and their teams to take during tailoring is to carefully consider the appropriateness of each process for their specific situation. Tailoring involves customizing the project management processes to fit the unique needs and constraints of a project, so this step is crucial in ensuring the project's success.
