Which process is conducted from project inception through completion and is ultimately the responsibility of the project manager?

  1. Control Quality
  2. Monitor and Control Project Work
  3. Control Scope
  4. Perform Integrated Change Control

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Process: 4.5 Perform Integrated Change Control
Definition: Perform Integrated Change Control is the process of reviewing all change requests; approving changes and managing changes to deliverables, organizational process assets, project documents, and the project management plan; and communicating their disposition. It reviews all requests for changes or modifications to project documents, deliverables, baselines, or the project management plan and approves or rejects the changes.
Key Benefit: The key benefit of this process is that it allows for documented changes within the project to be considered in an integrated fashion while reducing project risk, which often arises from changes made without consideration to the overall project objectives or plans.

An element of the modern quality management approach used to achieve compatibility with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is known as:

  1. Forecasting,
  2. Brainstorming.
  3. Historical databases.
  4. Cost of quality.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Cost of quality (COQ). Cost of quality refers to the total cost of the conformance work and the nonconformance work that should be done as a compensatory effort because, on the first attempt to perform that work, the potential exists that some portion of the required work effort may be done or has been done incorrectly. The costs for quality work may be incurred throughout the deliverable’s life cycle.
For example, decisions made by the project team can impact the operational costs associated with using a completed deliverable. Post-project quality costs may be incurred because of product returns, warranty claims, and recall campaigns. Therefore, because of the temporary nature of projects and the potential benefits that may be derived from reducing the post-project cost of quality, sponsoring organizations may choose to invest in product quality improvement. These investments generally are made in the areas of conformance work that act to prevent defects or act to mitigate the costs of defects by inspecting out nonconforming units.
