PMP Chapter 6
Question | Answer |
---|---|
A previous project that can be adapted for the current project complete with forms that are pre-populated with organizational specific information are called (BLANK). | Template |
Planning the immediate portions of the project in detail and the future portions at a higher level is known as (BLANK). | Rolling Wave Planning |
The work package, which is the smallest component in the WBS, is further broken down into (BLANK) which includes labor managing project time. | Schedule Activites |
True or False - Since activities are directly derived from the work packages, no activity should fall outside of the project scope. | True - Activities should be created directly from the WBS (Scope Baseline). |
What are the 3 outputs of the Process 6.2 Define Activities? | 1. The Activity List 2. Activity Attributes 3. Milestone List |
To ensure the project team has detailed information, each activity is further defined. An identifying number, the preceding and succeeding activities and/or the leads and lags may be included, as well as other info. These are called (BLANK) | Activity Attributes |
Also known as Mandatory Dependency, this term describes activities that must happen in a particular order. For instance, the dirt must be excavated before the foundation can be built. | Hard Logic |
Requiring that the painting activity be completed prior to the start of the carpeting installation activity is an example of which PDM activity relationship? | Finish to Start |
Activities in the (BLANK) have no float and sum to the project duration. | Critical Path |
True or False - There can be more than one critical path. | True |
A form of schedule compression that adds resources to an activity on the critical path in an effort to complete rapidly. | Crashing |
Relying on historical information to predict what current activity durations should be is known as what? | Analogous estimating |
What are the three estimates that comprise a 3-Point Estimate? | Optimistic, Most Likely and Pessimisstic |
True or False - 3-Point Averaging should fall closer to the "Most Likely" estimate than PERT. | False - PERT weighs the "Most Likely" estimate 4 times more than optimistic or pessimistic. |
Positive Time that moves two or more activities further apart and is also known as "waiting" is (BLANK) | Lag time |
Process 6.7 Schedule Control feeds change requests to what other Project Management Process and Code of Accounts? | 4.5 Integrated Change Control |
(BLANK) works to modify the project schedule based on the availability of resources rather than activity sequencing. | CCM or Critical Chain Method |
Crashing adds resources to an activity but it also adds (BLANK). | Cost |
