PMI Project Management Professional Practice Question

Conducting a compliance risk assessment is the most thorough and proactive approach to identifying potential threats to compliance. It involves systematic evaluation of the possible risks that could affect project compliance requirements. This differs from merely reviewing historical data or relying on past compliance audits, as risk assessments are forward-looking and specifically tailored to assess the unique conditions and risks of the current project. This proactive approach allows the project manager to identify potential threats before they materialize.
