PRINCE2 Prince2-Practitioner Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Scenario

A photographer from Portraits Ltd, a professional photographic company, has taken on the role of Team Manager after taking some time to understand the requirements of the project. A contract for their services has been set up and is being monitored by the Purchasing Manager and a Work Package has been agreed. This contract specifies that the photographer must arrange a meeting with the Engineering Manager to establish a schedule for the photo sessions to minimize the impact on the Engineering staff. This meeting should have occurred by now.

The Engineering Manager was made aware of this requirement but when asked he reported that he has received no communication from the photographer. The Project Manager has tried to call the photographer and has had no response. The Project Manager believes there is a risk that Portraits Ltd are overbooking work and prioritizing other clients' work. If Portraits ltd do not deliver on schedule the project will be delayed and the expected benefits will be reduced.

The contract is to be reviewed and Portraits Ltd reminded of their agreement.

The project is now in stage 2. The Project Manager has heard about the possibility of a competitor also producing a calendar to be delivered earlier than the target date for this project. There is a threat that the early release of a competitor's calendar may weaken the impact of the MNO Manufacturing Company calendar, thereby reducing the anticipated benefits of the Calendar project.

Which 2 statements should be recorded under the Roles and responsibilities heading?

RISK

The following risk has been recorded:

“There may not be enough participants for the pilot courses to justify the continuation of the project.”

The recommended risk response is to improve the marketing campaign, and a risk budget exists to fund the response.

Here are three risk actions related to this response?

Which role (A-F) should be responsible for each action?

Choose only one role for each action. Each role can be used once, more than once, or not at all.

Project Scenario

Project Scenario

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

There has been a reduction in fie number of orders at the MNO Manufacturing Company due in part to the increased marketing activities of its competitors. To help counter this, the company has decided to create a promotional calendar for next year for all its current and prospective customers. The end product of this project will be a prepared calendar pack, ready for printing. The design of the calendar will be similar to one sent out previously, and must reflect the company image as described in the existing corporate branding standards. Another project is currently producing a new company logo when is to be printed on each page of the promotional calendar. The prepared calendar pack will consist of:

Design for each month - correctly showing at public holidays and new company logo

Selected photographs- 12 professionally-produced photographs, showing different members of staff

Selected paper and selected envelope - for printing and mailing the calendar

Chosen label design - a competition to design a label will be held as part of this project

List of customers - names and addresses of customers to whom the calendar will be sent.

The project is currently in initiation and will have two further stages:

Stage 2 will include tie activities to:

Create the customer fast using information from the Accounts and Marketing departments

Confirm compliance with the Data Protection Legislation

Create a design for each month - this will be done by the internal creative team

Select and appoint a professional photographer

Gather photograph design ideas from previous project and agree photographic session schedule

Prepare a production cost forecast

Select paper and envelope.

Stage 3 will include the activities to:

Produce and select tie professionally-taken photographs

Hold the label design competition and choose the label design

Assemble the prepared calendar pack.

A production cost forecast, based on the options and costs for the paper, envelope, printing and marketing of the calendar is to be produced in stage 2. However, the actual production and distribution of the calendars is not within the scope of the project. The product cost forecast will be reviewed by the Project Board to determine whether tie project should continue.

It is now 05 October and the prepared calendar pack must be delivered to the print company by 30 November, to enable printing and distribution of the calendar in time for Christmas. The cost of the activities to develop the specialist products and the cost of the project management activities are estimated to be £20,000. There is a project time tolerance of +1 week /-2 weeks and a project cost tolerance of +£6,000 / -£6,000. A change budget of £500 has been allocated but there is no risk budget.

Lines 1 to 6 in the table below consist of an assertion statement and a reason statement For each line identify the appropriate option, from options 1 to 6, that applies. Each option can be used once, more than once or not at all.
