A project manager is managing a project for a government owned company using an iterative approach. The first useful release to production consisted of three iterations. Each iteration was

successfully checked by the client's representatives in the test environment. However, when the team started deploying to the production environment, the security team declined it.

What should the project manager have done to prevent this?

Deployed to production after the first iteration

Planned smaller iterations to review the results more often

Reviewed the compliance requirements with stakeholders

Implemented the authorization in the first iteration

The project manager should have reviewed the compliance requirements with stakeholders before starting the project, as well as during each iteration. Compliance requirements are the rules and regulations that the project must follow, such as security, health and safety, regulatory compliance, etc. By reviewing the compliance requirements with stakeholders, the project manager can ensure that the project aligns with the expectations and needs of the client, the government, and the organization. This can also help to identify and mitigate any potential threats or risks to compliance, and avoid any consequences of noncompliance, such as delays, rework, penalties, or loss of reputation.Reference:Project Management Professional (PMP) Certification | PMI,My project should be compliant - Project Management Institute,3.1.
