Question 116

Shawntel is the project manager at Capone Corporation. Her latest project, the Alfonso Project, requires several project team members to complete certification training for a different project the week of April 16. Because of this training, some of the project activities on Shawntel's schedule may be delayed from her target schedule. This is an example of which of the following choices?
  • A Soft logic
  • B Conflict of interest
  • C External dependencies
  • D Hard logic
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct response is external dependencies. The training course apart from the Alfonso Project must be finished before the Alfonso Project can begin. There is no preferential (soft) logic, and therefore it is an incorrect response. Conflict of interest does not apply to this scenario and is incorrect. Hard logic is defined as the mandatory sequencing of events and is incorrect.
