Which of the following activities is the Executive responsible for?
The Executive is responsible for assessing and updating the Business Case at the end of each stage. This is a crucial aspect of ensuring that the project remains viable and aligned with its business objectives throughout its lifecycle. Ensuring the desired outcome of the project is specified is usually a collective responsibility involving various stakeholders. The Benefits Review Plan, both during and post-project, typically falls under the Project Manager's responsibilities.
Correct, Executive. 6.2.3 says "By default, the executive is responsible for ensuring that benefits reviews are planned and executed, but there are circumstances where this may not always be the case
correct, only Executive p.52
correct 6.2.3
B. Responsible for the benefits review plan The page states that the Executive is responsible for "Ensuring that the project delivers the projected business benefits." This aligns with being responsible for the benefits review plan, which outlines how the benefits will be reviewed and measured after project completion. The other options are responsibilities of the Project Board or Project Manager, not the Executive specifically. The Executive ensures the desired outcome is specified by authorizing project startup, but is not directly responsible for specifying the outcome itself. Assessing and updating the Business Case is a Project Board duty. The Project Manager is responsible for the Benefits Review Plan during the project, while the Executive handles it post-project. So in summary, the Executive's unique responsibility listed in the options is oversight of the Benefits Review Plan after the project finishes.
