The project board has asked user and supplier assurance to review all product descriptions relating to the 'updated corporate quality procedures', prior to authorizing the stage plan for stage 3.

Is this appropriate as part of the 'directing a project' process, and why?

You know, I bet the project board just wants to make sure everything is up to their 'updated corporate quality procedures.' I mean, who knows what those even are, am I right? Option A seems like the safest bet.

Ha! The project board asking for a review of product descriptions? Sounds like they're trying to micromanage the whole thing. Option D is the way to go - let the project manager do their job and focus on the big picture.

But shouldn't the project manager be responsible for writing the product descriptions?

I don't know, I think the project manager should be responsible for writing the product descriptions. The project board has enough on their plate without having to review every little detail. Option C sounds like the way to go.

User1: So maybe a combination of both project manager and project assurance is needed.

This definitely seems appropriate as part of the directing a project process. The project board is responsible for reviewing and authorizing the stage plan, so they should ensure all product descriptions are up-to-date and meet the corporate quality procedures. Option B seems to be the correct answer here.
