CLOSING A PROJECT -
The Health and Safety Training Project is part of a strategic program for ABC. The updated benefits management approach needs to be checked when the products are being handed over. This check should ensure that it includes appropriate activities to assess whether the actual course sales meet the agreed forecast in the business case.
Which role should undertake this review as part of the 'closing a project' process?
In the context of closing a project, it is essential to review the benefits management approach to ensure that it includes appropriate activities to assess whether the actual outcomes meet the agreed forecasts in the business case. This responsibility typically falls under project assurance. The role of project assurance includes ensuring that the project adheres to the necessary standards and that the business case remains valid. Therefore, project assurance is best suited to undertake this review.
Table 20.3, page 265, Its clear that the correct answer is project assurance - Option D. Project board does review the benefit management approach but in some other process, note the use of parenthesis (R) explained just below the table. As part of 'Closing a Project' process, the benefit management review is responsibility of project assurance.
The answer is D (ref. table 20.3). The keyword here is "review", most of the reviews are entitled to the Project Assurance.
A is correct . Ref 20.5.4.4 closing a project within programme
if it is part of program then A, otherwise should be B
Though i selected B, but now i think A is the correct answer as this project is under a Programme. Thanks.
As per table 20.3 Page 265 the reviewers for benefit management approach are Executive, senior user, senior supplier, Project assurance. So the answer could be either B or D. What am i missing? why every answer is so confusing
No that I revisited the table 20.3, page 265, Its clear that the correct answer is project assurance - Option D. Project board does review the benefit management approach but in some other process, note the use of parenthesis (R) explained just below the table. As part of 'Closing a Project' process, the benefit management review is responsibility of project assurance.
D is correct as per Table 20.3 page 265
According to table 20.3 on page 265, Project Manager is responsible for benefit management approach in "Hand over products", therefore C should be correct.
B ref table 20.3
As part of the 'closing a project' process, the updated benefits management approach needs to be checked to ensure that it includes appropriate activities to assess whether the actual course sales meet the agreed forecast in the business case . Therefore, the role that should undertake this review is the Project Board, which is responsible for ensuring that the project remains viable and that the expected benefits are realized . The Project Board is also responsible for approving the updated benefits management approach and ensuring that it is aligned with the business case . Therefore, option B, "Project board," is the most appropriate answer.
C is correct. Question mentions '...needs to be checked when products are being handed over' therefore it relates to Closing of Project Process - refer to Figure 20.1 which shows that the last task under Closing a Project process is 'recommend project Closure', which is then approved/rejected under the 'Directing a Project' Process. If Rejected, the Closing Project process will restart, if not the project is considered closed for the PM team. Also, 20.4.1 'Before closure of ther project can be recommended, the PM must ensure (check) that the expected results have all been achieved and delivered'.
Should be D In 20.4.3 Table 20.3 Says: Benefits management approach - Review in the Project assurance column
A is correct
