Question 148

Joey is recovering from a project which recently ended. During this project, the stakeholders continuously added deliverables to the scope in addition to updating existing deliverables. The result was Joey's team being overworked and his other projects suffering from a lack of resources, all of which increasingly became devoted to the out-of-scope project. Before starting a new project, Joey decides to write up the overall characteristics of the product his team will provide as soon as he has a project charter and requirements documentation. This is an example of which part of the project scope statement?
  • A Acceptance criteria
  • B Project exclusions
  • C Product scope description
  • D Deliverables
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The product scope description explains the characteristics of a given service or product in accordance with the project charter and any requirements documentation. Deliverables are products, results, or capabilities required to complete a process, phase, or project. Acceptance criteria are conditions that must be fulfilled for deliverables to be accepted. Project exclusions are explicit statements or descriptions of what is out of scope for the project.
