Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Plan Quality Management, then Perform Quality Assurance, then Perform Quality Control
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because quality management starts with planning to define standards and metrics, followed by assurance to audit processes, and finally control to monitor results and take corrective actions.
- ✗
Perform Quality Assurance, then Plan Quality Management, then Perform Quality Control
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because assurance activities cannot occur without first having a quality plan in place. Planning must come before assurance to establish the criteria.
- ✗
Perform Quality Control, then Plan Quality Management, then Perform Quality Assurance
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because control is a monitoring activity that should happen after assurance; planning must precede both. Performing control first is out of sequence.
- ✗
Plan Quality Management, then Perform Quality Control, then Perform Quality Assurance
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because control should follow assurance, not precede it. Assurance evaluates processes to prevent defects, while control identifies defects in deliverables.
