PMP · Question 04 · Task 3: Assess and manage risks
During iteration planning for a hybrid software project, the team identifies a new technical risk: the third-party API they planned to integrate may not support the required data volume for the upcoming release. This could impact the sprint goal and the planned release date. What should the project manager do FIRST?
Answer options:
Add the risk to the risk register and schedule a risk review meeting for next week
Work with the team to identify alternative APIs or technical solutions immediately
Escalate the risk to the sponsor and request additional budget for a more robust API solution
Remove the API integration from the current sprint scope to avoid the risk
