Actual exam question for Isaca's COBIT-2019 exam

Question #: 65
Topic #: 4

[All COBIT-2019 Questions]

When is the BEST time to acquire or develop solutions for implementing process improvement projects defined by the EGIT implementation program plan?

AWhen denning potential implementation problems and opportunities

BWhen executing the EGIT implementation program plan

CWhen developing the EGIT implementation program plan

DWhen defining the EGIT Implementation road map

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

According to the COBIT 2019 Official Manual, it is best to acquire or develop solutions for implementing process improvement projects when the EGIT implementation program plan is being developed. This allows the implementation plan to take into account any solutions or technologies that are required to support the process improvement projects. Acquiring or developing solutions should not be done when defining the EGIT implementation roadmap or when defining potential implementation problems and opportunities, as these do not involve the actual implementation of the program plan. Solutions should be acquired or developed when executing the EGIT implementation program plan, as this is when the actual implementation of the program plan takes place.

I feel like it varies by project, but C makes sense.

It's all about defining those problems first!

Surprised this isn't more clear, I thought it was during the roadmap phase.

I disagree, it should be when executing the plan.

I keep thinking about option D, defining the road map. It seems like we need clarity on our goals before we can implement anything.

I'm leaning towards option B, executing the plan, but I feel like we should have solutions ready before that stage.

I remember a practice question that emphasized the importance of defining problems first, so maybe option A is correct?

I think the best time might be when developing the EGIT implementation program plan, but I'm not entirely sure. It feels like that's when we should be laying the groundwork.

I'm leaning towards C as well. Identifying and planning for the necessary solutions upfront, during the program planning phase, seems like the most strategic approach.

Option C makes the most sense to me. Acquiring or developing solutions during the planning stage seems like the logical and best time to ensure they're in place when it's time to execute the program.

I think the answer is C - when developing the EGIT implementation program plan. That's when you'd want to identify and plan for the solutions needed to implement the process improvements.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem to focus on different stages of the EGIT implementation program, so I'll need to carefully consider the best time to acquire or develop solutions.

This question seems straightforward, but I want to make sure I understand the context. The key seems to be the timing of when to acquire or develop solutions for process improvement projects.

This is straightforward. I just need to subtract the weighted-average ending inventory from the FIFO ending inventory to get the $5,000 decrease that should be reported.

I think it's important to start acquiring solutions early on in the development of the program plan to ensure smooth execution later on.
