Project scenario - Get fit with football!

(
Note: The companies and people within the scenario are fictional)

Introduction

A Local Government Authority (LGA) has decided to organize a six-a-side football tournament. The tournament will contribute towards achieving the targets set by a national initiative to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16. As part of the LGA's policy of self-funding, this has to be achieved at zero cost to the LGA (and therefore the local tax payer). The cost of the event will be covered through fees paid by teams registered to take part in the tournament, sponsorship and monies raised during the day. Any surplus would be used for the maintenance of local sports centres.

Teams can register under one of several age groups for both boys and girls. In addition, family members are asked to attend to provide support.

This sports event is designed to be a family day out. The football tournament will have an event village including a kidz'-zone, catering, car parking, mobile changing rooms and toilets. The tournament will take place on the LGA-owned football pitches near the centre of the town, although space is somewhat limited.

Scope

The initial scope of the project includes:

a marketing campaign to promote the event;

a celebrity to open the event;

a website to provide information about the event and handle applications;

an event village to support the 'family day out';

the training of LGA staff as volunteers to run and support the event;

back-office processes to handle the applications;

fundraising to cover the cost of the event.

The project has been set up with four work streams to deliver this work:

1. Marketing
2. Website
3. Event Village
4. Staff Training

Project Background

The LGA have extensive experience in using PRINCE2 and will run the event as a single project. The project manager is fully conversant with PRINCE2 Agile. One office in the LGA building in the centre of town has been given to the project for the entire duration. The office is across the corridor from the Marketing Department and the project manager has already put a sign on the door that says 'Mission Control'.

Timeline

An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.



Marketing - Additional information

The marketing campaign has two key areas to promote:

1. The event itself including the football tournament, event village and fundraising activities.
2. The LGA's long term aim to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16.

The Marketing Team has received some initial Scrum training but is unsure how it can be applied to their marketing work.

The Marketing Team is keen that the project manager provides them with a clear brief for the campaign before they spend too much time on it.

They have experience of working with a variety of marketing channels, although they are not sure which channel(s) will work most effectively to promote this type of event, and in particular to promote the LGA's longer term health aims.

The Marketing Team is not clear on the priority to assign to the two aims for the event.

The Marketing Team will publish advertisements and/or promotional material every week, with more information in each issue to keep the message up to date.

Nine releases are scheduled at the end of each of the nine week-long timeboxes.

The nine timeboxes within the marketing work stream are scheduled to include:

advertisements:

a radio interview;

production of a hand-out/flyer;

banners and signs to put up around the town and at the event;

the provision of a website and social media content;

promotional posters to be displayed by local businesses.

Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:

The Marketing Team is not sure whether all the information, photos and links needed for the website pages being set up by the Website Team can be delivered within the current timebox.

One of the team members has suggested that the team regularly visit the LGA's cafeteria to show the staff in other departments some rough drawings of the website pages to get their feedback. This can then be used to help decide which parts of each page are most important to deliver within the timebox.

Which BEST explains how this approach manages change?

  1. It is a good approach because changes at the high level for a timebox will NOT affect the baseline.
  2. It is a good approach because changes to the website information should be based on feedback.
  3. It is a poor approach because exploration is a behaviour that requires a creative environment to enable change.
  4. It is a poor approach because some of the website pages should be moved to the next timebox.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

By seeking feedback from staff on rough drawings of the website pages, the Marketing Team can make informed decisions about what content is most valuable and should be prioritized for delivery within the current timebox. This responsive approach allows the team to adapt to feedback effectively, ensuring the final product meets stakeholder needs.

Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:

The Marketing Team is concerned that if local schools hold their annual fundraiser on the same day as the football tournament, this may cause attendance to be adversely affected.

The team manager has asked the business analyst to investigate this risk further and report back to the team at the next daily stand-up.

Which BEST explains how this approach manages risk?

  1. It is a good approach because the business analyst is responsible for capturing the wider customer view.
  2. It is a good approach because discussions in the daily stand-up are a way to actively manage risk.
  3. It is a poor approach because the team manager should carry out actions related to risks that may impact delivery.
  4. It is a poor approach because this risk is outside the project's control so it is NOT relevant to the Marketing Team.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The daily stand-up is an opportunity for the team to discuss ongoing issues, including risks. By having the business analyst investigate the potential conflict with the local schools' fundraiser and report back, the team can address this risk proactively and make informed decisions on how to mitigate it, thus managing risk effectively.

Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:

The Marketing Team have noted in their daily stand-up that they cannot work out the versions and review status of the information and photos which will appear on the website pages.

Which core practice might be the MOST useful to immediately help with the 'managing product delivery' process?

  1. Refer to a cumulative flow diagram to identify the status of the remaining work.
  2. Identify the effect of delaying the delivery of a web page in a daily stand-up.
  3. Visualize the status of the work using a 'ticket' board with 'swim lanes'.
  4. Carry out a safe-to-fail experiment to identify a better way of working.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Using a 'ticket' board with 'swim lanes' allows the Marketing Team to visualize the different versions and review statuses of the information and photos for the website. This practice helps clarify the current state of work, promotes transparency, and facilitates better communication within the team, ultimately supporting effective management of product delivery.

Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:

The Marketing Team has created a plan of 9 timeboxes that always end on a Friday. The senior user has decided to visit the Marketing Team every Friday in order to attend their regular reviews.

Which reason BEST explains whether this is a suitable approach for the 'directing a project' process?

  1. It is a good approach because regular reviews will provide rich information to assess project viability.
  2. It is a good approach because the senior user will be able to oversee the performance of the team.
  3. It is a poor approach because the senior user should focus on looking at the information radiator instead.
  4. It is a poor approach because the reviews should be scheduled as needed, when products are developed.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Regular reviews conducted by the senior user allow for continuous assessment of the project's progress, ensuring that the project remains aligned with its objectives and can adapt to any necessary changes. This ongoing engagement is vital for maintaining project viability and stakeholder involvement.

Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:

Many Marketing Team members were expressing frustration that some members of the team had worked only on specific products and had not helped in the delivery of others. Therefore, the Marketing Team produced a Glad! Sad! Mad! board during a recent retrospective.

Which statement explains why this approach to identifying issues is appropriate for the 'controlling a stage' process?

  1. A retrospective should identity all areas of improvement that should be actioned by a team.
  2. Glad! Sad! Mad! is a feedback technique that focuses on feelings and helps to identify improvements.
  3. Glad! Sad! Mad! is a feedback technique used in a retrospective to monitor the progress of a team.
  4. The retrospective empowers the delivery teams to work with a visual approach durinq a timebox.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The Glad! Sad! Mad! board allows team members to express their feelings about their experiences during the stage, helping to surface issues and areas for improvement. This emotional feedback can be crucial in identifying specific challenges within the team dynamics and product delivery, facilitating better control and adjustments for future stages.
