A software development program will launch iterative versions of new software called Alpha over two years. Following that, a program will be released to the program team and developers to create new software called Beta. While the program manager prepares the program closure plan for Alpha, the program sponsor expresses concern about its support after program closure.
What should the program manager do as part of Alpha's program closure plan?
The program manager should execute the transition plan and include knowledge transfer to transition Alpha support to operations. This ensures that support for Alpha continues even after the program has officially closed. It involves handing over responsibilities to the operational team who will be responsible for the continued support and maintenance of Alpha, ensuring they have the necessary information and capability to do so effectively.
in Normal case, A will be the answer, in this case same team will continue working in developing the software, so same developers will make the support not the Operations
My answer is A. B is not the answer for sure as it is not the way to keep program open. D is not the answer, as closure procedure not make sure the operation support is going well. C I don't think it is the answer,. As Beta is another software. Alpha program is not support by Beta program.
+1. A is the answer
A is the right answer.
A. Execute the transition plan, and include knowledge transfer to transition Alpha support to operations. This action ensures that the support for the Alpha software continues after the program has officially closed. The transition plan should include handing over responsibilities to the operational team who will support Alpha post-launch. This includes knowledge transfer, so the operational team understands the software and has the necessary information and documentation to maintain and support it effectively.
A is the best choice
