Watch out for

Common Constraints and Changes exam traps

▸Answering from memory before reading the full scenario.
▸Missing a constraint such as cost, availability, security, scope or command context.
▸Choosing a broad answer when the question asks for the most specific fix.
▸Ignoring why the wrong options are tempting.

A project manager is creating the WBS. Which rule ensures that all deliverables and work required for the project are included in the WBS and no work is omitted?

Trap 1: Rolling wave planning

Rolling wave planning is a progressive elaboration technique, not a completeness rule.

Trap 2: Scope verification

Scope verification is the process of formal acceptance of deliverables, not a WBS rule.

Trap 3: Decomposition rule

Decomposition is the process of breaking down deliverables, not the rule for completeness.

A
Rolling wave planning
Why wrong: Rolling wave planning is a progressive elaboration technique, not a completeness rule.
B
Scope verification
Why wrong: Scope verification is the process of formal acceptance of deliverables, not a WBS rule.
C
100% rule
The 100% rule ensures the WBS contains all work required to complete the project.
D
Decomposition rule
Why wrong: Decomposition is the process of breaking down deliverables, not the rule for completeness.

A project manager is creating the WBS. Which rule ensures that all deliverables and work required for the project are included in the WBS and no work is omitted?

During project execution, a customer requests a new feature that was not in the original scope. The project manager receives a change request. What is the NEXT step the project manager should take?

A project team is analyzing potential risks. They gather experts who provide anonymous responses to a questionnaire, and then the facilitator shares a summary for further rounds of feedback. Which risk identification technique is being used?

A project manager is using a schedule compression technique that adds resources to critical path activities to shorten the project duration. Which technique is being used, and what is its primary trade-off?

A project team discovers a problem that is currently happening and affecting project deliverables. The project manager needs to document this situation. Which document should be used to record this?

In a construction project, the foundation must be completed before the framing can begin. This is an example of which type of dependency?

A project team is performing quantitative risk analysis using a technique that runs thousands of simulations to determine the probability of completing the project on a specific date. Which technique is being used?

A project team is facing a critical issue that the project manager cannot resolve. According to best practices, what should the project manager do?

A project has a constraint that a key piece of equipment must be sourced from a specific vendor due to organizational policy. This is an example of which type of constraint?
