Question 71
You are the project manager of a project that has preset budget and must be completed within six months. You’ve completed the first phase of your project. The stakeholder, however, wants to know why one of the changes you and he discussed was not implemented into the deliverable. During the original conversation about the change the stakeholder wanted to perform a cost-benefits analysis, which he reported the results of to you. What’s your response?
- A The change was not needed.
- B The change would have cost too much.
- C The change would have taken too long to deliver.
- D The change request was never documented for the change control system.
Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The change control system that all changes should be formally documented. Undocumented change requests should not be processed or implemented. 1 is incorrect because the change may have been needed but the failure to follow the change control system prevents the change from entering the project scope. 2 is incorrect because there’s no mention of how much the change would cost the project. 3 is incorrect because there’s no mention of how much additional time the change would require.Discussion
