The WBS and WBS dictionary have been completed, and the project team has begun working on identifying risks. The sponsor contacts the project manager, requesting that the responsibility assignment matrix be issued. The project has a budget of $100,000 and is taking place in three countries using 14 human resources. There is little risk expected for the project, and the project manager has managed many projects similar to this one. What is the next thing to do?

• Understand the experience of the sponsor on similar projects .

• Create an activity list.

• Make sure the project scope is defined.

• Complete risk management and issue the responsibility assignment matrix.

• Make sure you have a signed project charter and then start the WBS.

• Create an activity list before creating a network diagram.

• Document all the known risks before you document the high-level assumptions.

• Finalize the quality management plan before you determine quality metrics.
