Test Yourself - Planning 1

 Test yourself – Planning 1

 

Explain the importance of monitoring project deliverables 

Monitoring project deliverables is important to ensure they are adequate for the user requirements and that the quality is acceptable. By monitoring the project deliverables, it mitigates the chance of scope creep and helps everyone on the project team stay on track. 

Describe the difference between a project aim and a project objective 

A project aim outlines the overall goal or purpose of the project whilst the project objectives go into further details about certain sectors and phases of the project. 

Describe the term cost-benefit analysis 

Cost benefit analysis is a process that debates the cost of a project against the benefit of the deliverables on a financial or other sector level. 

Explain the difference between a risk and an issue 

An issue happens whilst a project is happening whilst a risk is identified in the project planning phase. 

Discuss the project planning phase and the different aspects of the process that must be included and documented 

In project planning, designing and choosing effective policies and methodologies is key to attaining project objectives. The whole project should be clearly outlined, and key details explained. Some tools and techniques that can be used are TBS (task breakdown structure), SOW (scope of work), and CPM (critical path method).
