PMP · Question 98 · Task 14: Establish project governance structure

Implement the organization's standard governance structure without modifications to maintain consistency

B.

Assess organizational governance and adapt it to address the project's specific international, regulatory, and integration complexity requirements

C.

Create entirely new governance structures designed specifically for complex international projects

D.
