- E. Facilitate the creation of a list of actions to be carried out after the workshop, to resolve the issue.
Answer: A,E
Explanation:
The two actions that the Workshop Facilitator should take if the team cannot agree on the system content are:
* C. Facilitate the creation of a list of actions to be carried out after the workshop, to resolve the issue. This will ensure that the disagreement does not stall the project and that there is a clear plan for how to move forward.
* E. Prepare a report describing the outcome of the workshop. This will provide a record of the discussion and any decisions made, which can be useful for future reference and for keeping stakeholders informed.
Please note that while presenting their own interpretation of what the system should include (option A) or presenting the group with a predefined specification of what should be included (option B) might seem like potential solutions, these actions could bias the discussion and may not lead to a solution that meets all stakeholders' needs. Agreeing to disagree and closing the workshop (option D) could leave the issue unresolved, which could cause problems later in the project. The facilitator's role is to guide the discussion and help the team reach a consensus, not to impose their own views or prematurely end the discussion.

D: A report showing the number of application forms completed online through the website for coffee shop insurance policies will be produced weekly.
E: Once the new system has been deployed, the time it takes to process sales online will be compared with the time it takes to process new policies sold through telephone sales.
D: Producing a weekly report on the number of application forms completed online is a clear post-project activity. It provides ongoing monitoring of the project's impact and the effectiveness of the online system in attracting coffee shop insurance policies.
E; Comparing the processing times of online sales to telephone sales after the new system's deployment is an essential post-project activity. It evaluates the efficiency and effectiveness of the new online system, offering insights into improvements and adjustments that may be needed.
Why Other Statements Are Excluded:
A: Creating a company-wide email to show the number of policies sold by each sales assistant weekly is more related to internal sales performance monitoring and motivation rather than a specific post-project activity tied to the project's objectives.
B: Circulating a copy of the revised sales procedure before product deployment is a preparation step for the transition to the new system, rather than a post-project activity.
C: The Project Manager attending Daily Stand-up meetings is part of the ongoing project management and team coordination activities during the project, not a post-project activity.
Topic 2, Hoy Hall Hotel Refurbishment Project
Scenario:
Hoy Hall Hotel Refurbishment Project
(Note:
Hoy Hall, a historic, timber-framed building dating from the 17th century, was originally the residence of the Lords of the Manor of Hoytown. The building is registered as a Heritage Building of Special Interest and is subject to restrictions in terms of development. Used as a hotel for over a century, it has recently fallen into disrepair, and for two years it has been completely unused, accelerating its deterioration. The local community has formed the Action Group "Hoy for Hoy Hall" to save the building, and wants to be closely involved in its future success.
After much discussion Hoy Hall has been purchased by Architecture Angels (AA), a small company whose directors are experienced hoteliers. Five years ago they decided to move into the property renovation business and have recently restored two other similarly-endangered buildings for use as hotels.
Architecture Angels are keen to both support local businesses and to have local people run their hotels, giving them a significant amount of autonomy to do this.
To maintain core consistency, the hotels use Architecture Angels' Head Office services, such as IT operations, accounting, payroll, stocktaking, compliance, human resources and property management. The Head Office is based 80 miles from Hoy Hall.
Recently Architecture Angels commenced an Agile project to renovate Hoy Hall, which has a large downstairs hall and reception area, and 20 potential bedrooms upstairs. The roof requires extensive repairs and the electrical and plumbing installations require complete replacement. The 40 acres of land around the site are overgrown and need to be restored, and the driveway needs re-laying.
In the hotel industry, the trend for direct customer bookings via the internet has had a major impact on the growth of those hotels with this facility. Online booking now accounts for around 80% of room bookings, with only 20% being made via walk-in and telephone enquiries. Before Hoy Hall can open for business, a reservation system must be fully operational.
Architecture Angels use contractors to manage such work and have good
relationships with two local companies: Timber Tigers (TT) who will handle the internal works, and Earth Excavations (EE) who will handle the gardens.
A Project Manager, who has since left the company, started the Feasibility phase. This phase has been continued by the Senior Management Team, which consists of the Sales, Marketing, and Finance Directors and the Chief Executive.
This was scheduled to take a month and has almost been completed. A
Feasibility Assessment has been produced. An Outline Business Case has been completed which assessed the project as being viable.
The Architecture Angels Senior Management Team will be responsible for
Steering the project.
The table below shows the appointments planned for the project team and is subject to change.
Additional Information:
The project is approaching the end of Feasibility. The original Project Manager was involved in drafting a Delivery Plan for the project but not in the outline refurbishment options.
The Senior Management Team generated several options for the refurbishment.
All the options included a landscaping solution for the gardens and re-laying of the driveway, as the solution will not be acceptable without these. However, the best solution for the refurbishment is still under debate. The new Project Manager has suggested that a Feasibility Prototype could consist of paper-based drawings for each option. The "Hoy for Hoy Hall" Action Group thinks that a physically-built representation is mandatory for a prototype and wants a small-scale model of the recommendation for the building. The time available to produce this, however, is limited.
Contracts for resources have not yet been signed and will be postponed until the chosen outline solution has been agreed.
NEW QUESTION # 27
Answer the following questions about the acceptance criteria within the project.
Decide whether the approach to setting and using acceptance criteria has been applied appropriately and select the response that supports your decision.
When specifying high-level prioritised requirements during Foundations, the Business Visionary has suggested that acceptance criteria for the requirement to "temporarily weatherproof the roof" should NOT be set until Solution Development Timebox A.
Is this an appropriate approach to setting high-level acceptance criteria?
- A. No, because by the end of Foundations the quality expectations and overall acceptance criteria for at least the first increment should have been set, and high-level acceptance criteria set for later increments.
- B. Yes, because the Local Planning Authority Officer will set the acceptance criteria.
- C. No, because a Review Session should have been scheduled during Feasibility to enable the Solution Development Team to validate their understanding of the Local Planning Authority Officer's expectations.
- D. Yes, because acceptance criteria are NOT set before the Timeboxed work is started.
Answer: A
Explanation:
C: No, because by the end of Foundations the quality expectations and overall acceptance criteria for at least the first increment should have been set, and high-level acceptance criteria set for later increments.
Rationale:
In Agile Project Management, it's important to establish high-level acceptance criteria early in the project to guide development and ensure that the solution meets the business needs and quality expectations. The Foundations phase is when the project's scope, objectives, and methods are defined, including the acceptance criteria for the first increment and at a high level for subsequent increments. This ensures that everyone has a clear understanding of what "done" looks like before development begins, reducing the risk of misalignment and rework.
NEW QUESTION # 28
Resources are limited. The Sales Manager has two marketing assistants who may be able to give a few hours a week between them to the project.
What action should the Project Manager take?
- A. Accept that members of the Solution Development Team will be
inconsistent. - B. Try to secure formal agreement as to how many hours per week the
marketing assistants will spend on the project. - C. Make each Timebox as long as possible to ensure the marketing
assistants have enough time to complete any work allocated to them
within the boundaries of the Timebox. - D. Schedule the two marketing assistants to work at different times so they can hand matters over to one another.
Answer: B
Explanation:
In the context of Agile Project Management, it is crucial to have clear commitments regarding team members' availability to ensure that project planning and execution can be as accurate and effective as possible. By securing a formal agreement on the hours the marketing assistants can dedicate to the project each week, the Project Manager can better plan tasks and allocate resources, thereby optimizing the team's capacity and ensuring that project timelines and deliverables are realistic and achievable.
References:
The Agile Project Management (AgilePM) framework emphasizes the importance of clear communication, resource planning, and commitment from all team members to ensure project success. Having a formal agreement on availability helps in setting clear expectations and allows for more effective planning and utilization of resources within the constraints of the project, aligning with Agile principles of collaboration, adaptability, and iterative progress.
NEW QUESTION # 29
The project is now in the second week of Timebox C. This is the final Timebox of Project Increment 1 and is scheduled to take one month. The plan is to open Hoy Hall to the public at the end of this Increment. A Must Have requirement of Timebox C is the implementation of a hotel reservation system.
At the Daily Stand-up, the Software Developer working on the reservation system reported that the framework for the system is now complete and ready for content.
However, this work cannot progress further due to a disagreement over the content. The Marketing Director insists the system is to hold professional photos and video tours of the facilities and grounds. These require a lot of storage space and regular updates. The IT Operations Manager insists the system is to take less than 5GB of storage space on the company server and require minimal maintenance.
The Team Leader has arranged a Facilitated Workshop to discuss the content and agree the way forward.
Remember to limit your answers to the number of selections requested in each question.
Which 2 individuals should the Facilitator invite to participate in the Workshop?
- A. Representative for Timber Tigers (Solution Developer)
- B. Chief Executive (Steering Group)
- C. IT Operations Manager (Solution Development Team)
- D. Representative for Earth Excavations (Solution Developer)
- E. Marketing Director (Business Visionary)
Answer: C,E
Explanation:
The Facilitator should invite the following two individuals to participate in the Workshop:
D: IT Operations Manager (Solution Development Team) E. Marketing Director (Business Visionary) The rationale for this selection is that the disagreement is between the Marketing Director, who wants the reservation system to have professional photos and video tours (which impacts how the system will be used by potential customers and affects marketing strategy), and the IT Operations Manager, who is concerned with the system's technical limitations and maintenance. Both of these individuals are key to resolving the issue at hand, as they represent the conflicting requirements that need to be reconciled for the project to move forward.
NEW QUESTION # 30
Using the Project Scenario and the additional information provided for
this question in the Scenario Booklet, answer the following questions
about Feasibility.
Remember to limit your answers to the number of selections requested in each question.
Which 2 statements describe the appropriate application of Agile Project Management when developing the Feasibility Assessment?
- A. The Architecture Angels' Finance Director should approve the final
Business Case as part of the Feasibility Assessment. - B. The different options should be presented to the 'Hoy for Hoy Hall' Action Group for their feedback before the chosen outline solution is finalised.
- C. The Timber Tigers' Site Manager should be the sole approver of the finalised Feasibility Assessment before development commences.
- D. The new Project Manager should NOT be involved in finalising the
Feasibility Assessment. - E. The Earth Excavations' Head Gardener should contribute to the outline solutions considered for the gardens.
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
In Agile Project Management, it's important to involve key stakeholders and to ensure that there's a collaborative approach to project decisions. Considering the Agile principles and the given scenario, the appropriate application of Agile to the Feasibility Assessment would likely involve the following statements:
B: The Architecture Angels' Finance Director should approve the final Business Case as part of the Feasibility Assessment. In Agile, it's crucial to ensure that the business aspect of any project aligns with the financial feasibility. The Finance Director's approval would be significant in validating the economic viability of the project.
D: The different options should be presented to the 'Hoy for Hoy Hall' Action Group for their feedback before the chosen outline solution is finalised. Agile encourages stakeholder engagement and iterative feedback.
Presenting options to the action group aligns with the Agile value of customer collaboration over contract negotiation, allowing for community input that could be vital due to the building's heritage status and the community's interest.

NEW QUESTION # 33
Using the additional information provided for this question in the Scenario Booklet, answer the following questions about the requirement for a fire exit from the upstairs of the building.
What is an appropriate reason to classify the need for a secondary exit from the upstairs of the building as a Must Have requirement?
- A. Provision of a secondary exit from the upstairs of the building will ensure compliance with national fire safety regulations.
- B. A secondary exit from the upstairs of the building would help ease congestion in busy periods during festivals.
- C. A secondary exit from the upstairs of the building will provide a shorter and more direct route into the garden than the main stairway.
