PMI Exam PMI-SP Topic 3 Question 99 Discussion

Actual exam question for PMI's PMI-SP exam
Question #: 99
Topic #: 3
[All PMI-SP Questions]

You have created the project network diagram for your project. Management is reviewing the network diagram and they are curious as to why you have included levels of effort activities as start- to-start and finish-to-finish successor activities for work that uses particular manufacturing equipment. You explained that the levels of effort activities are maintained for the equipment. This relationship and scheduling scenario is also known as what term?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The limit on each work is an organizational policy for each project. Policies, rules, and

organizational requirements are the enterprise

environmental factors.

Answer option D is incorrect. Organizational process assets are things that have been created for the

project manager, such as software,

templates, guidelines, and other resources that will assist the project manager in completing the

project.

Answer option C is incorrect. While this could be a resource limitation, it is not a valid project

management term. Resource leveling heuristics

or a project constraint would have been acceptable answers.

Answer option A is incorrect. Expert judgment happens, when the project manager relies on

someone with more knowledge on a topic to help

the project manager make the best project decision.

I dunno, maybe C) Subproject? If the manufacturing equipment is a separate part of the overall project, that could fit the description.

B) Hammock activity has got to be the right answer. Gotta love those cozy little hammock activities, am I right?

I'm going with A) Project management overhead. Maintaining those levels of effort activities sounds like an administrative task rather than a technical one.

User 3: I'm not sure, but I think it might be C) Subproject. It sounds like a separate project within the main project.

D) Finish-to-Start seems like the most logical choice here. The levels of effort activities are being used as successors, which is a finish-to-start relationship.

A Hammock activity is a group of related activities that are planned and managed together. It helps in organizing and tracking work that spans across multiple tasks.
