    PMP · Question 74 · Task 11: Plan and manage procurement

    A project manager discovers that a vendor has been consistently delivering components that meet the technical specifications but arrive without proper documentation required for regulatory compliance. This has created additional work for the project team. What should the project manager do?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Accept the components and have the internal team create the required documentation

    B.

    Work with the vendor to clarify documentation requirements and establish processes to ensure complete deliveries

    C.

    Implement penalty clauses for incomplete deliveries

    D.

    Find an alternative vendor who can provide complete deliveries

    How to approach this question

    When vendors deliver incomplete work, address the root cause through clarification and process improvement rather than accepting the problem or using punitive measures.
