Milestones established by the customer must be adhered to by:

 Project manager
 Functional managers
 The customer
 Both a and b

The decision to request an increase the resources for a project is the responsibility of
the:

 Functional manager
 Project manager
 Director of project management
 Customer

In which of the following project phases is the project schedule developed?

 Conceptual
 Planning
 Implementation
 Design

To crash a schedule you should:

 Increase the time allowed on those tasks that have float.

 Try to invest more time on tasks that are behind schedule.
 Replace the team members that are not performing well.
 Put extra resources on those tasks that are on the critical path.

The process of establishing the policies, procedures and documentation for planning,
developing, managing, executing and controlling the project schedule is known as

 Plan Schedule Management

 Control Schedule
 Develop Schedule
 Sequence Activities

Which of the following is NOT one of the primary needs for good project scheduling?

 Clear scope of work

 Decreasing the time required for decision making
 Eliminating idle time
 Developing better trouble shooting procedures
The inputs used in the Define Activities process includes all but

 Scope baseline
 EEF
 OPA
 Milestone list

The successful project managers spend most of their time:

 Planning with their personnel

 Planning with the top management
 Communication with the project team
 Studying project results.

) Resource leveling attempts to :

 Balance the demand and supply of resources considering the availability

constraints.
 Ensure that the budget abnormalities are overcome.
 Reduce the amount of resources so that they can be shared with on other
endeavors.
 Increase the amount of the project manager's authority so that budget dollars can
be appropriated.

The tools and techniques used in Estimate Activity Durations exclude which of the
following

 Analogous Estimating
 Group Decision-Making Techniques
 Reserve Analysis
 Leads and Lags

The Project Time Management Process consists of following seven processes:

a. Define Activities .2
b. Develop Schedule.6
c. Plan Schedule Activities .1
d. Sequence Activities.3
e. Estimate Activity Durations.5
f. Estimate Activity Resources.4
g. Control Schedule.7
The correct sequence is:
  Plan Schedule Activities  Define Activities  Sequence Activities.  Estimate
Activity Resources  Estimate Activity Durations  Develop Schedule 
Control Schedule

(c-a-d-f-e-b-g)

The hierarchical representation of resources by category and type, which is useful for
organizing and reporting project schedule data with resources utilization information is
known as

 WBS
 Activity Resource requirements
 Resource breakdown Structure

The representation of the plan for executing the project's activities including durations,
dependencies, and other planning information, used to produce project schedules
along with other scheduling artifacts is known as

 Schedule Compression
 Schedule Model
 Schedule Data
 None of the above

A subsidiary plan that identifies a scheduling method and scheduling tool, and sets the
format and establishes criteria for developing and controlling the project schedule is
known as

 Schedule Management Plan

 Develop Project Management Plan
 Project Schedule Presentation
 Both A & C

Which of the following is the output of the Plan Schedule Management process?

 Activity List
 Schedule Management Plan
 Activity List
 Project Schedule Network Diagram

The following inputs are used in both Sequence Activities and Estimate Activity
Resources process, excluding

 Schedule Management Plan

 Activity List

What is the term for an iterative planning technique in which the work to be
accomplished in the near term is planned in detail, while the work in the future is
planned at a higher level

 Decomposition

 Start-to-finish
 Predecessor-Follower
 Only A and B
 A, B, and C

The method of estimating project duration or cost by aggregating the estimates of the
lower-level components of the WBS is known as:

 Alternative Analysis
 Bottom-up Estimating
 Parametric Estimating
 Three-point estimating
