Illustration

The illustration for Monitor & Control Project Work states that one input is "Work performance data" but per the PMBOK p. 105, it should be "Work performance information".

n/a

In my book, it looks like there was a big printing problem. From page 638, it goes to page 623. Then from page 638, it jumps to 655. It seems like pages 639-644 was replaced with a duplicate insert of pages 623-638. Importantly, this results in much of Procurement Management's instruction to be omitted from the book.

Fixed Price Contracts section, 3rd point (p.656); Index section (p.866,867)

The term "Fixed price with economic price adjustments (FPEPA)" is incorrectly referenced as "Fixed price with economic cost adjustments (FPEPA)" on pages 656, 866 and 867 of the Head First PMP Guide, 4th Edition. Please update accordingly.

Reference: PMBOK Guide (6th Edition), p.471.

Output ( of the Plan Stakeholder Engagement)

The output of the " Plan stakeholder engagement" process is the "Stakeholder engagement plan" based on PMBOK 6th Edition. But in the printed version of the book on page 701 in the "Output" section that representing the table and the header of the table shows the output of this process as
"Stakeholder management plan " which is wrong and has to be corrected.

Processcross item 14 across

In the processcross, the answer to number 14 across, should be "ENGAGEMENT".
However, there is one too many boxes for the letters, so it doesn't fit.

In the solution on p. 760 the answer is filled in as "ENAGAGEMENT", which is not correct spelling.
