Specification of both the deliverables and the processes is the focus of:

  1. Change control
  2. Configuration control
  3. Project monitoring and control
  4. Issue control

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Configuration control is focused on the specification of both the deliverables and the processes; while change control is focused on identifying, documenting, and approving or rejecting changes to the project documents, deliverables, or baselines.
Some of the configuration management activities included in the Perform Integrated Change Control process are as follows:

Configuration identification. Identification and selection of a configuration item to provide the basis for which the product configuration is defined and verified, products and documents are labeled, changes are managed, and accountability is maintained.
Configuration status accounting. Information is recorded and reported as to when appropriate data about the configuration item should be provided. This information includes a listing of approved configuration identification, status of proposed changes to the configuration, and the implementation status of approved changes.

Configuration verification and audit. Configuration verification and configuration audits ensure the composition of a project’s configuration items is correct and that corresponding changes are registered, assessed, approved, tracked, and correctly implemented. This ensures the functional requirements defined in the configuration documentation have been met.



Which output of Project Cost Management consists of quantitative assessments of the probable costs required to complete project work?

  1. Activity cost estimates
  2. Earned value management
  3. Cost management plan
  4. Cost baseline

Answer(s): A

Indirect costs, if they are included in the project estimate, can be included at the activity level or at higher levels.
