Which input to the Manage Stakeholder Engagement process provides guidance on how stakeholders can best be involved in a project?
Answer(s): D
13.2.3.1 Stakeholder Management PlanThe stakeholder management plan is a component of the project management plan (Section 4.2.3.1) and identifies the management strategies required to effectively engage stakeholders. The stakeholder management plan can be formal or informal, highly detailed or broadly framed, based on the needs of the project.In addition to the data gathered in the stakeholder register, the stakeholder management plan often provides: Desired and current engagement levels of key stakeholders;Scope and impact of change to stakeholders;identified interrelationships and potential overlap between stakeholders; Stakeholder communication requirements for the current project phase;Information to be distributed to stakeholders, including language, format, content, and level of detail; Reason for the distribution of that information and the expected impact to stakeholder engagement; Time frame and frequency for the distribution of required information to stakeholders; andMethod for updating and refining the stakeholder management plan as the project progresses and develops. Project managers should be aware of the sensitive nature of the stakeholder management plan and take appropriate precautions. For example, information on stakeholders who are resistant to the project can be potentially damaging, and due consideration should be given regarding the distribution of such information. When updating the stakeholder management plan, the validity of underlying assumptions should be reviewed to ensure continued accuracy and relevancy.13.3 Manage Stakeholder EngagementDefinition: The process of communicating and working with stakeholders to meet their needs/expectations, address issues as they occur, and foster appropriate stakeholder engagement in project activities throughout the project life cycle.Key Benefit: The key benefit of this process is that it allows the project manager to increase support and minimize resistance from stakeholders, significantly increasing the chances to achieve project success.Inputs1.

A method of obtaining early feedback on requirements by providing a working model of the expected product before actually building is known as:
5.2.2.8 Prototypes Prototyping is a method of obtaining early feedback on requirements by providing a working model of the expected product before actually building it. Since a prototype is tangible, it allows stakeholders to experiment with a model of the final product rather than being limited to discussing abstract representations of their requirements. Prototypes support the concept of progressive elaboration in iterative cycles of mock-up creation, user experimentation, feedback generation, and prototype revision. When enough feedback cycles have been performed, the requirements obtained from the prototype are sufficiently complete to move to a design or build phase. Storyboarding is a prototyping technique showing sequence or navigation through a series of images or illustrations. Storyboards are used on a variety of projects in a variety of industries, such as film, advertising, instructional design, and on agile and other software development projects. In software development, storyboards use mock-ups to show navigation paths through webpages, screens, or other user interfaces.
Which stakeholder classification model groups stakeholders based on their level of authority and their active involvement in the project?
Answer(s): A
13.1.2.1 Stakeholder AnalysisStakeholder analysis is a technique of systematically gathering and analyzing quantitative and qualitative information to determine whose interests should be taken into account throughout the project. It identifies the interests, expectations, and influence of the stakeholders and relates them to the purpose of the project. It also helps to identify stakeholder relationships (with the project and with other stakeholders) that can be leveraged to build coalitions and potential partnerships to enhance the project’s chance of success, along with stakeholder relationships that need to be influenced differently at different stages of the project or phase.Stakeholder analysis generally follows the steps described below:Identify all potential project stakeholders and relevant information, such as their roles, departments, interests, knowledge, expectations, and influence levels. Key stakeholders are usually easy to identify. They include anyone in a decision-making or management role who is impacted by the project outcome, such as the sponsor, the project manager, and the primary customer. Identifying other stakeholders is usually done by interviewing identified stakeholders and expanding the list until all potential stakeholders are included.Analyze the potential impact or support each stakeholder could generate, and classify them so as to define an approach strategy. In large stakeholder communities, it is important to prioritize the stakeholders to ensure the efficient use of effort to communicate and manage their expectations.Assess how key stakeholders are likely to react or respond in various situations, in order to plan how to influence them to enhance their support and mitigate potential negative impacts.There are multiple classification models used for stakeholders analysis, such as:Power/interest grid, grouping the stakeholders based on their level of authority (“power”) and their level or concern (“interest”) regarding the project outcomes;Power/influence grid, grouping the stakeholders based on their level of authority (“power”) and their active involvement (“influence”) in the project;Influence/impact grid, grouping the stakeholders based on their active involvement (“influence”) in the project and their ability to effect changes to the project’s planning or execution (“impact”); andSalience model, describing classes of stakeholders based on their power (ability to impose their will), urgency (need for immediate attention), and legitimacy (their involvement is appropriate).
Which Plan Schedule Management tool or technique may involve choosing strategic options to estimate and schedule the project?
Answer(s): C
4.4.2.2 Analytical TechniquesAnalytical techniques are applied in project management to forecast potential outcomes based on possible variations of project or environmental variables and their relationships with other variables. Examples of analytical techniques used in projects are:Regression analysis, Grouping methods, Causal analysis, Root cause analysis,Forecasting methods (e.g., time series, scenario building, simulation, etc.), Failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA),Fault tree analysis (FTA), Reserve analysis,Trend analysis,Earned value management, and Variance analysis.Process: 6.1 Plan Schedule ManagementDefinition: The process of establishing the policies, procedures, and documentation for planning, developing, managing, executing, and controlling the project schedule.Key Benefit: The key benefit of this process is that it provides guidance and direction on how the project schedule will be managed throughout the project.Inputs1.

Which basic quality tool is most useful when gathering attributes data in an inspection to identify defects?
Checksheets, which are also known as tally sheets and may be used as a checklist when gathering data. Checksheets are used to organize facts in a manner that will facilitate the effective collection of useful data about a potential quality problem. They are especially useful for gathering attributes data while performing inspections to identify defects. For example, data about the frequencies or consequences of defects collected in checksheets are often displayed using Pareto diagrams.
