schedule to absorb the delay. cost, and risk, then present options to the
change control board.
C. Reject the request as it violates the D. Escalate to the project sponsor for
project charter. immediate decision.
Correct: B - Evaluate the impact on scope, schedule, cost, and risk, then present options
to the change control board.
Rationale:The PM should first analyze the impact of the proposed change on all constraints
and then follow the formal change control process, which includes submitting to the CCB for
decision. This ensures informed decision-making and maintains control over the project
baseline.
Why the other answers are wrong:
A. Approving without analysis violates change control and may jeopardize the schedule and
cost baselines.
C. Rejecting outright ignores the stakeholder's legitimate need and the possibility of trade-offs.
D. Escalation may be premature; the PM should first analyze and present options before
escalating.

Q3.
A project has a cost performance index (CPI) of 0.8 and a schedule performance index
(SPI) of 1.2. The project is currently in which state, and what is the most likely cause?
A. Over budget and behind schedule; due to B. Under budget and ahead of schedule;
poor cost estimation. due to efficient resource utilization.
C. Over budget and ahead of schedule; due D. Under budget and behind schedule; due
to over-allocation of resources to accelerate to inadequate resource planning.
progress.
Correct: C - Over budget and ahead of schedule; due to over-allocation of resources to
accelerate progress.
Rationale:CPI < 1 indicates cost overrun, while SPI > 1 indicates ahead of schedule. This
often results from crashing or adding resources to speed up work, which increases costs.
Why the other answers are wrong:
A. SPI > 1 means ahead, not behind, schedule.
B. CPI < 1 means over budget, not under.
D. Both indices are opposite to this description.

Q4.
A project team is developing a critical component. The project manager wants to ensure
that the final product meets the required specifications. Which tool or technique is most
effective for preventing defects during the development process?
