The Training Delivery Manager was identified as the senior user. However, before the project begins, this manager goes on long-term sick leave. The executive says that they do not need to replace the role of senior user on the project board.
Is this an appropriate application of the ‘defined roles and responsibilities’ principle, and why?
- A . Yes, because the executive can ensure that the investment provides value for money.
- B . Yes, because havin
eg two out of three of the stakeholder interests represented on the project board is enough. - C . No, because trainers need to be represented on the project board to ensure the outcomes meet the trainers’ needs.
- D . No, because the resources and expertise required by the project may be internal or external.
The Health and Safety Training Project has been divided into four stages. The executive considers this project to be a compulsory project and has advised the project manager that it is not necessary to produce the project initiation documentation. This would mean that the project would consist of three delivery stages.
How well does this apply the ‘manage by stages’ principle?
- A . It applies it well, because the project management method should be tailored to the project.
- B . It applies it well, because the justification for delivering the project is already understood.
- C . It applies it poorly, because the stages should be shorter to provide more control to the project board.
- D . It applies it poorly, because solid foundations should be established for every project.
A new Training Delivery Manager is being recruited to replace the current manager in six month’s time. The new Training Delivery Manager will need to review the ‘classroom-based training materials’ before they are finalized. As a result, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who is not part of the project management team, has stated that the project’s duration should be at least seven months. Any deviations from this timescale must be escalated to the CEO.
Is this an appropriate application of the ‘manage by exception’ principle, and why?
- A . Yes, because a project time constraint should be set to meet ABC Company’s business objectives.
- B . Yes, because the CEO should be responsible for resolving exceptions throughout the project.
- C . No, because the executive should set time tolerances for the Health and Safety Training Project.
- D . No, because completing the project earlier than expected should not be reported as an exception.
During the initiation stage, the project manager aligns the project’s risk management approach to ABC Company’s risk management policy. As a result, the project will use two risk registers, one for ABC Company’s risks and one for external supplier risks.
Is this an appropriate application of the ‘tailor to suit the project’ principle, and why?
- A . Yes, because the risk management approach should comply with the supplier’s needs.
- B . Yes, because project controls should take the project’s environment into account.
- C . No, because all three stakeholder interests need to be represented effectively on the project.
- D . No, because a single risk register should be used to record risks to the project.

Scenario
Additional Information
During the initiation stage the Project Manager met with the Marketing Director to find out more about the requirements of the promotional calendar and recorded the following notes:
There has been a reduction in the order numbers at the MNO Manufacturing due in part to the increased marketing activities of its competitors. 10% of customers have not re-ordered in this financial year and staff morale is poor. A number of skilled staff have left as a result and replacement staff have not been recruited due to the reduced operation. If the project is successful, a recruitment campaign will be required to fill the existing staff vacancies and there may be a requirement for additional staff. Operational costs are likely to increase because skilled staff are expensive and difficult to find.
In financial terms, there were a total of 1,500 orders in the last financial year, each with an average profit of £2k. The Marketing department believes that sending a promotional calendar to our current and prospective customers would increase orders by at least 10% with a minimum of 10 further orders from the list of prospective customers within 12 months from the date of distribution.
The Marketing Director will be funding the project from the business marketing budget. She believes that the effect of a good company image portrayed by a successful calendar would last into a second year. She has forecast the same increase in orders for a second year and predicts that the annual employee satisfaction survey will show a measurable improvement in staff morale.
A number of alternatives were explored, including:
– 20% discount for all repeat customers – not cost-effective and very short term
– A promotional calendar as a free Christmas gift – would target current and prospective customers and the benefits would last into a second year
– A series of television and press advertisements was too expensive
– A direct mail shot to all customers – benefit would be short term
– Creation of an internet website – would not suit all customers
The calendar is seen as the favored option, as long as the company’s competitors do not increase their marketing activity. Whilst the Marketing department wants a very high quality, glossy product, the project management team must be aware of the cost this will incur.
