PMP · Question 06 · Task 1: Plan and manage project compliance
During a compliance audit of a software project, the auditor identifies that the team is using open-source code with a license that requires the final product to be open-source as well. This contradicts the company's proprietary business model. The code is deeply integrated into the architecture.<br/><br/>What is the MOST appropriate immediate action for the project manager?
Answer options:
Ignore the finding as the code is already integrated and rewriting it is too expensive.
Log the issue in the risk register and analyze the cost/schedule impact of replacing the code.
Immediately fire the lead developer responsible for selecting the library.
Purchase a commercial license for the open-source library to resolve the issue.
