Question 10
You and the project sponsor are working together to create a project scope statement. The project sponsor has concerns about the demand for safety for the electrical requirements for the project work. The concerns about safety should be documented as which one of the following?
- A Initial risk
- B Cost of quality
- C Product requirement
- D Assumption
Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The concerns surrounding the electrical work describe a risk. This is an example of a pure risk because this dangerous activity can only have negative outcomes if someone is injured. An investment, such as purchasing faster computer equipment, is a business risk because it can have a positive or negative outcome. 2 is incorrect as the cost of quality describes the expense to ascertain the expected quality. 3 is incorrect as a product requirement describes the requirements the project must adhere to. 4 is incorrect; an assumption is when something is assumed, but not proven. Assumption can become risks, but this is not the best answer in this scenario.Discussion
