Question 1

The project executive has decided to treat stage 2 as a separate feasibility project with its own business case. The output from this project will be high-level requirements and a recommended option. The project manager has documented the following benefit in the business case for the Feasibility Study Project. "A 10% increase in the donations received from existing individual donors and donor organizations."

Is documenting this as a benefit of the Feasibility Study Project an appropriate application of the ‘business case’ practice, and why?

Options :

A : Yes, because a benefit is the measurable improvement resulting from an outcome perceived as an advantage by the investing organization

B : Yes, because the benefits should be identified in the business case to support the business justification at the beginning of the project

C : No, because business justification for the Feasibility Study Project should consider the value of a project, not just the benefits

D : No, because the output of the Feasibility Study Project will be a recommended option that will not result in the required outcomes to realize the stated benefit

Answer: D

Question 2

The Contracted Project Manager is drafting the quality management approach during stage 1. The Director of Campaigns has suggested that the objective of project quality management should be to ensure that the project team is familiar with, and able to use, a variety of media (tv, press, and social networks) by the end of the project.

Is this an appropriate application of the ‘quality’ practice, and why?

Options :

A : Yes, because the use of media by the project team is a user quality expectation to be achieved by the delivered multi-channel campaign

B : Yes, because the use of media by the project team is an acceptance criterion to be achieved by the delivered multi-channel campaign

C : No, because the use of media by the project team is an outcome to be achieved, rather than a purpose of project quality management

D : No, because the use of media by the project team is an output to be produced as part of the delivered multi-channel campaign

Answer: C
