    PMP · Question 29 · Task 13: Determine appropriate project methodology/methods and practices

    A project manager is assigned to lead a new product development project. The product requirements are well-defined but may evolve based on market feedback during development. The organization has experience with both predictive and agile methodologies. The stakeholders want regular visibility into progress and the ability to adjust priorities based on market conditions. Which methodology approach should the project manager recommend?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Predictive approach since the requirements are well-defined at the start

    B.

    Agile approach since stakeholders want regular visibility and ability to adjust priorities

    C.

    Hybrid approach combining predictive planning with agile delivery and feedback cycles

    D.

    Iterative approach with multiple development cycles and regular stakeholder reviews

    How to approach this question

    Analyze project characteristics: well-defined initial requirements (predictive strength) + need for adaptation and regular feedback (agile strength) = hybrid approach.

    Full Answer

    C.Hybrid approach combining predictive planning with agile delivery and feedback cycles✓ Correct
    C
    Hybrid methodologies combine predictive planning for stable, well-defined elements with agile practices for areas requiring adaptability and regular stakeholder feedback.

    Common mistakes

    Students often choose pure predictive (A) focusing on defined requirements, or pure agile (B) focusing on adaptability, missing the opportunity to leverage both strengths through hybrid approach.
