Wait, are we really considering no quality control? That sounds risky.

I'm a bit confused about option C; how can we be sure the team member's experience is enough without a quality plan in place?

I feel like there was a practice question about balancing cost and quality, and I chose to prioritize quality then too.

I think option B makes the most sense because quality should never be compromised, even if the tasks seem easy.

I remember discussing the importance of a quality management plan in class, but I'm not sure if it's always necessary for simple tasks.

I'm leaning towards option A. Registering the risk and allocating the savings to the management reserve seems like a good compromise.

Definitely go with option B. Quality is just as important as cost and schedule, if not more so. Cutting corners on quality control is a recipe for disaster.

Option C seems a bit risky to me. I'd want to make sure the team member really has the experience to build software without quality control.

I remember from the course material that the Architecture Vision is sent from the sponsor and triggers the start of an architecture development cycle, so I'll go with C.

Isn't a router also involved in managing server connections? I keep getting confused between routers and switches.
