CRISC Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control – Question174

Your project change control board has approved several scope changes that will drastically alter your project plan. You and the project team set about updating the project scope, the WBS, the WBS dictionary, the activity list, and the project network diagram. There are also some changes caused to the project risks, communication, and vendors. What also should the project manager update based on these scope changes?

A.
Stakeholder identification
B. Vendor selection process
C. Quality baseline
D. Process improvement plan

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

Explanation: When changes enter the project scope, the quality baseline is also updated. The quality baseline records the quality objectives of the project and is based on the project requirements.
Incorrect Answers:
A: The stakeholder identification process will not change because of scope additions. The number of stakeholders may change but how they are identified will not be affected by the scope addition.
B: The vendor selection process likely will not change because of added scope changes. The vendors in the project may, but the selection process will not.
D: The process improvement plan aims to improve the project’s processes regardless of scope changes.
