HINT: The Initiating Process Group has been completed, and the Planning Process Group is about to begin.
Question

3.
The correct answer is B.
The question states that project planning is about to begin which suggests that project initiation has been
completed. The project charter is created during the Develop Project Charter process as part of project
initiation.
The project team uses the project charter as a starting point for initial project planning. The type and
amount of information in the project charter varies depending on the complexity of the project and the
information known at the time of its creation.
At a minimum, the project charter should define the high-level information about the project that will be
elaborated in the various components of the project management plan.
