Question 279

During the 'initiating a project' process the Training Delivery Manager identified that there would be additional work in auditing the delivery of the classroom-based health and safety training course. This work will have to be carried out by existing staff members. The project manager recorded this information as a dis-benefit in the benefits management approach and asked the Training Delivery Manager to capture the team's current workload.

Is this an appropriate action for the prepare the 'benefits management approach' activity, and why?

    Correct Answer: A

    Yes, because the baseline for the current workload needs to be captured in order to measure the dis-benefit. In the context of managing benefits and dis-benefits during a project, establishing a baseline for the current staff workload is a necessary step to effectively measure the impact of additional tasks. This allows for a clear understanding of whether the added auditing workload constitutes a dis-benefit relative to the initial conditions.

Discussion
ravi_awsOption: C

This should be "No, because the additional workload is an additional cost that should be included in the business case" so C is correct

ravi_awsOption: A

A) Yes, because the baseline for the current workload needs to be captured in order to measure the dis-benefit is the correct answer. In PRINCE2, the benefits management approach prepared during 'initiating a project' should outline both benefits and dis-benefits. Capturing the current workload provides a baseline to measure if the additional auditing causes a dis-benefit later.
