The executive team is concerned with the performance of a PMO. Some customers have complained that service delivery is inconsistent.

What should the PMO professional do first to address these concerns?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

To address concerns about inconsistency, the first step is to engage customers to verify their expectations and determine if misalignment exists. This dialogue clarifies service gaps and identifies improvement opportunities.

Presenting benefits (Option B) or reviewing metrics (Option C) are useful but may miss the root cause if expectations differ. Increasing services (Option D) can worsen inconsistency.

PMI-PMOCP Governance emphasizes stakeholder engagement as a first response to service quality concerns.

D seems like a stretch. More services won't fix the current problems.

Increasing the number of services offered might just complicate things further. I feel like we should focus on improving what we already have first.

Presenting the PMO's benefits sounds important, but I wonder if that would really address the immediate concerns about service delivery.

I remember a practice question where we had to analyze service quality metrics. It seems like reviewing those metrics could help identify the inconsistencies.

I think meeting with customers to reassess expectations could be a good first step, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best approach.
