During the initiation stage, a risk was recorded that sales of the singer's album might impact sales of other albums produced by the record company.
Therefore, when this risk was reviewed during project closure, a follow-on action recommendation was made for the record company's audit department to report on the impact during post-project benefit reviews.
Is this appropriate, and why?
a) Yes, because the project cannot be closed until the impact from sales are measured.
b) Yes, because the follow-on action will enable this risk to be closed in the risk register.
c) No, because a follow-on action should be addressed to an individual rather than a department.
