600 Questions With Detailed Explanation
Questions:
1.The project manager needs to effectively engage stakeholders throughout the project life cycle. Analytical techniques can be used to identify the current and desired engagement levels of each stakeholder. This information is captured in:
A) Stakeholder analysis matrix
B) Analytical forecasts
C) Stakeholders Engagement Assessment Matrix
D) Stakeholder register
Explanation: The Stakeholders Engagement Assessment Matrix (see below) is used to document current and desired engagement levels of project stakeholders.
2. You are just assigned as new project manager and while reviewing the project cost, you realize there has been an item of $100,000 waiting to be paid, which, you think, is a disputed item. Your project CPI is 1.2. In this case:
A) Since this is a small amount compared to the total project value, it can be paid ignoring all objections.
B) Since the project CPI is greater than one, you do not have any difficulties with the cost of the project.
C) You can, hence, bury the payment in contingency account and move on with the project.
D) You should inform your manager and ascertain the facts of the matter before making the payment
Explanation: You must refuse the payment. 3 Option 3 is the best answer because, as a project manager, you are supposed to deal with any issue or alleged unethical practice and not ignore it. Option 1 and option 2 ask you to ignore the issue and hence are not recommended. Option 4 is recommended only after ascertaining the facts of the matter as stated in option 3.
3) When your project is nearing completion, the customer requests you to include an additional feature in the final product. You realize that this feature was discussed with the project sponsor in an earlier meeting and he was against having this feature. What will be the BEST course of action?
A) Include the feature, as it will improve customer satisfaction
B) Include the feature in the project otherwise, the project will not be accepted by the customer
C) Talk with the sponsor on the benefits of having this feature
D) Decline the customer request and advise her to create a change request
Explanation: Option 4 is the best available choice. Neither option 1 nor option 2 is the best answer, because this requirement was absent in the scope of work, and inclusion of the same now will impact project deliverables. The issue was already discussed with the sponsor, and he was against having this feature. So, no purpose is served in referring the matter once again to the sponsor. Hence, option 3 is not the correct choice.
