Tom is the project manager of the GHQ Project for his organization. He is working on recovering the project schedule. As Tom examines his schedule he is especially aware of project activities with soft logic. What is soft logic?
Soft logic can be completed in any order without affecting the outcome of the deliverables.
Soft logic is also known as preferential logic, preferred logic, and discretionary dependency. It is
defined on the basis of knowledge of best practices and standard procedures for the particular
application area. Soft logic is defined by the project management team based on well-
known practices in a specific desired sequence.
Answer options A, D, and C are incorrect. These are not valid definitions of soft logic.
Adrian is the project manager for her project. This new project needs to identify all the stakeholders that will be affected by the project's outcome. How stakeholders are usually identified?
Stakeholders are interviewed and can help identify other stakeholders that should be
included in the project communications.
Answer option B is incorrect. According to the PMBOK, this is not the best answer.
Answer option A is incorrect. Stakeholders are entered into a stakeholder register, not identified by
it.
Answer option C is incorrect. Project customers are stakeholders.
Which of the following components of the change control system includes the documentation, tracking systems, and defined approval levels necessary for authorizing and controlling changes?
The change management system comprises several components that guide the change request
through the process. When a change request is made, it will affect the project scope. The
Configuration Management System evaluates the change request, and documents the features
and functions of the change on the project scope.
What is Configuration Management System?
Configuration Management System is a subsystem of the overall project management system. It is a
collection of formal documented procedures used to identify and document the functional and
physical characteristics of a product, result, service, or component of the project. It also controls any
changes to such characteristics, and records and reports each change and its implementation status.
It includes the documentation, tracking systems, and defined approval levels necessary for
authorizing and controlling changes. Audits are performed as part of configuration management to
determine
if the requirements have been met. Answer option D is incorrect. Integrated Change Control, part of
the change control system, does not document changes to the features and
functions of the project scope. It evaluates the change's impact on eight knowledge areas: scope,
time, cost, quality, human resources, communication, risk, and procurement.
What is Perform Integrated Change Control?
Perform Integrated Change Control is the process of reviewing all change requests, approving
changes, and controlling changes to the deliverables and organizational process assets in a project.
Perform Integrated Change Control has to do with influencing the things that cause change,
determining that the change is required or has happened, and managing the change.
Answer option A is incorrect. Verify scope is a process of formalizing acceptance of the completed
project deliverables. It is an inspection- driven process the stakeholders will complete to inspect the
project scope deliverables. It is typically performed at the end of the phase and at the end of the
project. Answer option C is incorrect. The Project Management Information System (PMIS) is an
information system consisting of the tools and techniques used to gather, integrate, and
disseminate the outputs of project management processes. It is used to support all aspects of the
project from initiating through closing, and can include both manual and automated systems. It is
the parent of the change control process. It is a system that includes all of the change control
processes for scope, time, cost, and procurement. Configuration management is part of the PMIS.
Robert is the project manager for his organization. Management has asked Robert to provide them
with the metric he uses to measure deliverables status, costs incurred, and especially how he
measures the schedule progress for schedule adherence. What project component could Robert
provide for management?
Work performance measurements are metrics that are defined to collect performance
and progress of the project. Typical metrics are
deliverables, schedule, and costs, though additional metrics, such as quality, can be added.
Work performance measurements are created from the work performance information. WPMs are
an output of Control schedule, Control cost,
and Control scope processes, which are monitoring and controlling processes. WPMs consist of
planned versus actual performance indicators
with respect to scope, schedule, and cost. They are documented and communicated to the
stakeholders and are used to make project activity
metrics, such as the following:
Planned vs. Actual Technical performance and Scope performance
Planned vs. Actual Schedule performance
Planned vs. Actual Cost performance
Answer option D is incorrect. The project management plan is too broad and is not the best choice.
Answer option B is incorrect. The cost management plan and the project schedule would not provide
all the information that management has
requested.
Answer option A is incorrect. The milestone list does not include performance metrics.
Laura is the project manager for her organization and management has requested her to create a report on her project's performance. Laura needs to analyze her current project performance and then compare it against what, in order to create a performance report?
The performance measurement baseline, which can be comprised of cost, scope, and schedule, is the foundation for creating a performance report. Answer option B is incorrect. The scope baseline will only reflect the performance of the scope, whereas performance reports typically need scope, time, and cost as its foundation. Answer option A is incorrect. Cost variances and the cost performance index are cost values that must be considered along with the scope performance and schedule performance. Answer option D is incorrect. Only reporting performance on the schedule is not enough for a performance report. Laura should also report on scope and cost at a minimum.
