The project is part of a program to increase the number of ABC courses that respond to legislation. The program manager has instructed the project manager to deliver the 'e-learning course' incrementally. The project manager has asked the program manager how often the highlight reports are required, and what format the reports should be presented in.
Is this an appropriate approach to controlling progress, and why?
The approach of delivering the 'e-learning course' incrementally and asking about the frequency and format of highlight reports is appropriate. This is because the way progress is controlled and reported should support the delivery approach selected by the program. Incremental delivery requires continuous tracking and aligning the project controls with the program's expectations ensures consistency and effective communication.
Refer A20.2 Page 320
The project controls are defined in the PID (option D) but this does not explain whether the proposed approach is correct or not. Instead, looking at ref 4.3.4.5, this is an example of tailoring the project products influenced by programme management.
Correct Answer : A
Correct Answer : A
D is the correct option as these should already be discussed and recorded in PID. A can not be right answer as highlight report is not about delivery approach but instead reporting approach. B also is not correct as Highlight report is a time driven control.
Sorry, now I think A is the correct option as reporting approach needs to be in sync with delivery approach and its not mentioned in scenario that a PID exists.
Correct answer A: 12.3.3
