Which tool in a predictive project helps identify whether project performance meets defined quality standards?
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: Control chart

Explanation

Control charts are quality management tools that plot performance data over time with upper and lower control limits. They help determine if a process is stable (in statistical control) and identify when special cause variation requires investigation. They are commonly used in quality monitoring and control.

**Why not A:** The work breakdown structure decomposes project scope into manageable components. It defines what work must be done but does not measure whether completed work meets quality standards. The WBS is a scope tool, not a quality measurement tool.

**Why not C:** The project schedule tracks planned and actual dates for activities. While it measures time performance, it does not assess whether deliverables meet defined quality standards. Schedule performance and quality performance are distinct dimensions.

**Why not D:** The stakeholder register identifies stakeholders and their interests. It supports stakeholder engagement but has no role in measuring whether project outputs conform to quality standards or specifications.
