,6 days correct answer The parks department is putting in new baseball
fields. The director asks for an estimate from the contractor for the
project length, in order to determine whether they will need to cancel
or postpone the upcoming baseball season. The contractor explains
that it all depends on the weather. Most months there are 5 days of
rain where they can't work. The least amount it has ever rained in the
last 10 years was 1 day. Weather forecasts show that there could be as
many as 12 days of significant rain. Using a triangular three-point
estimate, how many bad weather days will the baseball field project
need built into the schedule?
-4.5 days
-5 days
-5.5 days
-6 days

About 10 weeks correct answer If a project manager calculates an SPI of
1.2 for a project that was originally planned to take 3 months, how long
is it probably going to take now?
The Schedule Performance Index (SPI)
SPI = EV/PV
SPI values greater than 1 mean that the project team is completing
more work in less time than expected. This is a good result. If SPI is less
than 1, which indicates that the project team is accomplishing less work
for the time allowed.
-About 10 weeks
-Nothing changed - still 3 months
-Almost 4 months
-More information is needed
