PMI-SP Exam - Topic 9 Question 92 Discussion

Posted by Eveline on Oct 20, 2024 at 10:34 PM

You are the project manager for your organization. Management has asked you to document the holidays, weekends, and other corporate working hours, which will supersede the project timings for your schedule. Which calendar will communicate to the project stakeholders, when the project work will take place within the organization?

Suggested Answer: A

The float for Activity I is three days. The early start for Activity I is Day 17 and the late start for

Activity I is Day 20. Therefore, the difference of

the early start and the late start reveals the float as three days. It is possible, and acceptable, to use

the difference of the early finish and the late finish to find the float, as the value will be the same

amount. Answer options B, D, and C are incorrect. These are not the valid calculation for the total

float.

I vaguely recall a practice question where the company calendar was mentioned, but I don't think it covers project-specific details like the organizational calendar does.

I feel like the resource calendar could also be relevant, but it usually focuses on individual resources rather than the whole organization.

I think the organizational calendar might be the right choice since it outlines the overall working hours and holidays for the company.

I've got this! The organizational calendar is the way to go. It will show the company's holidays, weekends, and other working hours, which is exactly what the question is asking for. Easy peasy!

I'm a bit confused by this question. I'm not sure if I should choose the resource calendar, the company calendar, or the organizational calendar. Can someone help me understand the differences between these options?

Okay, let me see here. The question is asking about communicating project timings, so I'm thinking the project calendar would be the most appropriate choice. But I'll double-check the other options just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I'm trying to decide between the organizational calendar and the project calendar. I'll need to think it through carefully.

Let's be honest, the company calendar is probably just a fancy name for the organizational calendar. I'm sticking with C, no need to overthink this.

I'm pretty sure the resource calendar is just for individual team members, not the whole organization. So I'm gonna go with the organizational calendar on this one.
