Justin spends the next few days researching a previous problem he found, formulates a fix and puts through a change request with all the necessary approvals. Which best exemplifies this type of change request?
  1. Defect repair
  2. Preventative action
  3. Corrective action
  4. Murder board
  5. Retainage
Explanation
Answer: a - The answer that best represents this change request is defect repair-something that requires improvement because it didn’t satisfy the project’s requirements.

Preventative action is any action that’s taken to discourage similar problems from happening in the future that could affect performance relative to the project’s baselines.

Corrective action is any action that’s taken to correct current problems that are detracting from performance, relative to the project’s baselines.

Murder board is refers to a committee of people who critically assess the necessity of projects.

Key Take Away: When assessing a project’s performance, it’s imperative to remain aware of the factors that can go wrong in a project and the methods used to address them, especially since most large projects will require changes.
