Scenario

Product Summary

A list of customers will be collated. This will use existing information from the Accounts department about current customers, and existing information from the Marketing department about prospective customers.

Using the tariff of mailing costs available from the Post Office, a production cost forecast will be produced to allow the CEO and the Marketing Director to decide whether to continue with the project. If they decide to continue, they will give the approval to launch the internal label design competition. Competition rules will be required to communicate details of the competition to the staff. The chosen label design will then be selected from the competition entries.

The photos for the calendar must be based on existing photo design ideas available from the Marketing department. The selected photos will be chosen from these. Monthly calendar displays will be created to show the required layout of each page.

The Engineering Manager insists that there are to be no interruptions to operations whilst photographs are being taken of the engineering staff performing their everyday duties and operating machinery.

The operational staff schedule is produced weekly and maintained by the Engineering Manager.

None of the 500 change budget has been used to date and this is available for the stage.

I’m a bit confused about entry 10. I thought we needed to include all details in the Product Description, so maybe option E makes sense?

I think we had a practice question about external dependencies, and it seems like option D could apply here since the photographer is external.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like entry 9 should have been approved earlier, so maybe option C is right?

I remember we discussed the importance of confirming assumptions before finalizing the planning section. I think option A might be correct.

The key is to make sure you install the Falcon package before you register the sensor. I'd go with option A to play it safe.

I'm feeling a bit confused about this one. I know we need to create a query for a bar graph, but I'm not sure which of these functions would be the best to use. I'll have to review my notes and try to figure this out.

I agree with option C. The photo session schedule should have been approved earlier, so it doesn't belong in the planning assumptions for stage 3.

Haha, I bet the Engineering Manager is really protective of their operations. No interruptions allowed, even for a photo shoot! This is going to be an interesting project to manage.

I'm not sure about deleting entry 9. The photo session schedule should have been approved in stage 2, but it's still relevant to the planning assumptions for stage 3.
