PMI Project-Management-Professional PMP Question # 590 Topic 60 Discussion

The project manager should check with the agile teams to see if their understanding of the Agile Manifesto is correct because the Agile Manifesto values working software over comprehensive documentation. This means that agile teams should produce only the essential documentation that adds value to the project and the customer, and avoid unnecessary or excessive documentation that may slow down the delivery process or become outdated. The project manager should respect the agile teams’ autonomy and self-organization, and not impose any documentation requirements that are not aligned with the agile principles and practices. The project manager should also collaborate with the agile teams to understand their documentation needs and preferences, and support them in creating and maintaining the appropriate documentation for the project. References:
