Question 2

The Sales Channel and Processes Project is due to deliver the new sales processes within the next week.

C : Prepare the business for change and plan transition

D : Prepare for the next process

Answer: D

Question 3

The BCM has suggested that the schedule to achieve the increased sales and reduced costs should be integrated with the programme's schedule for delivering the projects. This would create a single view of the programme's work to deliver the new sales processes and channels as well as the increased sales and reduced costs. The programme manager has opposed this, believing it to be an invalid interpretation of the ‘structure’ theme.

Is the programme manager correct, and why?

Options :

A : Yes, because the benefits realization plan and delivery plan should remain independent to enable more effective change control.

B : Yes, because it is the BCM’s responsibility to produce the benefits realization plan, and plan for transition effectively.

C : No, because combining the benefits realization plan with the delivery plan should help the BCM prepare more effectively for the changes needed.

D : No, because the BCM should make decisions regarding the benefits realization plan ensuring that transition is aligned to benefits realization.

Answer: C

The programme board is concerned by the large number of staff-related issues being raised by the project manager of the Divisional Restructure Project. Some TechStore staff are threatening to go to the media about the way they have been treated. As a result, the programme board requested a review of the stakeholder engagement approach.

Is this an appropriate application of the 'assurance' theme?

Options :

A : Yes, because emerging issues and risks that threaten the viability of the programme should trigger assurance activities

B : Yes, because the stakeholder engagement process should be reviewed at regular intervals as part of regular progress monitoring

C : No, because the stakeholder engagement approach should be reviewed as part of the 'evaluate new information' process

D : No, because the potential damage to PCTech-s reputation from negative media reports should be recorded in the risk register
