PMP · Question 79 · Task 7: Address and remove impediments, obstacles, and blockers for the team
During a critical project milestone review, the development team reports that they cannot proceed with integration testing because the staging environment is still not configured properly by the DevOps team. The DevOps team says they are waiting for security approvals that have been delayed for two weeks. This is blocking the entire development workflow. What should the project manager do FIRST?
Answer options:
Escalate the security approval delay to senior management for expedited processing
Ask the development team to work on other tasks that don't require the staging environment
Work with the DevOps and security teams to explore alternative solutions or expedite the approval process
Adjust the milestone timeline to accommodate the security approval delays
