Question | Answer | |
---|---|---|
Which of the following is not a key component of scope planning? | Project charter | |
The scope statement provides which of the following? | A basis for a common understanding of the project and for making future decisions regarding the project | |
Which element is not a component or function of the scope management plan? | Describes the deliverables acceptance criteria | |
The scope management plan contains a | definition of how the deliverables will be validated, but the acceptance criteria are documented in the scope statement. | |
This involves changing the project or product scope without considering the impacts it will have to the project schedule, budget, and resources. | scope creep | |
you're developing the scope statement for a new project. What project phase are you in? | planning | |
Which of the following are components of a scope statement? Choose three. | Project description Assumptions and constraints Exclusions | |
The sections of a scope statement are | project description, key deliverables, success and acceptance criteria, exclusions, time and cost estimates, assumptions, and constraints. | |
Which term describes a characteristic of the scope planning (and other Planning) processes? | iterative | |
iterative | you'll define the scope statement and other planning documents, and as you create these documents. So, you'll go back through processes you've already started and modify them with the new information. | |
Your project is nearing completion of the first phase. Your key stakeholder for this phase reminds you that she will not accept the deliverable unless it measures 3 centimeters exactly. phase 2 will be delayed, and the entire project will be at risk. | acceptance criteria | |
Elements of the project that are not listed on the WBS are considered what? Choose two. | They are not considered part of the project, exclusion from scope | |
As you decompose the WBS, you discover a requirement that wasn't listed scope statement. This requirement is essential to a successful project because team must comply with in order to complete the deliverable. | This is example of constraint | |
There are three primary constraints on most of all projects. Your customer, or project sponsor, will stipulate which of the three is the most important to them. Which three are the typical constraints found on the majority of projects? | budget, scope , time | |
A.Influences can impact, change, or create a new constraint. B.Scope creep is an example of an influence. C.Change request is an influence. D.Interaction between constraints is an example of an influence. E.All of these. | all of the above | Which of the following describes influences? |
Your project is underway, and a key stakeholder has submitted a change request. After further investigation, you discover some scope creep has also occurred on the project. These are examples of which of the following? | influences | |
Scope creep and change requests are examples of | influences on the project. | |
Influences can | change, impact, or bring about new constraints. | |
You're developing a scope statement. A couple of the elements that the customer wants could be difficult to accomplish, but after consulting with the project team, you think it can be done.These elements are not in product description. What should you do? | Discuss the problem elements with the project sponsor and the customer. Obtain sponsor sign-off | |
Whenever problems arise on a project that are outside the authority or control of the project manager to resolve or when problems have the ability to affect project outcomes, | the sponsor should always be informed. | |
Which of the following is a characteristic of a WBS? | A. cost center structure for the project describes the work of the project and the costs comp to complete the deliverables B.A deliverables-oriented chart of the work of the project with assignments showing the project teams responsible for the work | C.A deliverables-oriented structure that describes the detailed tasks required to complete the deliverables D.A deliverables-oriented structure that defines the work of the project answer: D |
A WBS is created using a technique called decomposition. What is decomposition? | Breaking down the project deliverables into smaller, more manageable components | |
What is the lowest level of the WBS? | work package | |
All of the following are true regarding code-of-accounts identifiers except for which one? A.These are unique numbers for each component on the WBS. | b.They are documented in the WBS dictionary. C.They are tied to the organization's chart of accounts. D.They are assigned to the resources who are associated with the work package level. | answer:d |
Your team has already created a WBS for the ABC product launch project. You are kicking off phase 2 of this project, which is the product development phase. | Which of the following is an example of what might appear in the second level of your project's WBS? | project phases |
Which of the following is not a benefit of a WBS? | A.WBS is an excellent tool for team building. B.A WBS helps prevent critical work from being overlooked. C.A WBS can become a template for future projects. D.A WBS can be used to describe how the deliverables will be validated. | A WBS can be used to describe how the deliverables will be validated. |
The key components of scope planning | are the scope management plan, scope statement, and work breakdown structure. The project charter is created during project initiation. |
