NEW QUESTION 17
Project scenario – Get fit with football!
(Note: The companies and people within the scenario are fictional)
Introduction
A Local Government Authority (LGA) has decided to organize a six-a-side football tournament. The tournament will contribute towards achieving the targets set by a national initiative to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16. As part of the LGA’s policy of self-funding, this has to be achieved at zero cost to the LGA (and therefore the local tax payer). The cost of the event will be covered through fees paid by teams registered to take part in the tournament, sponsorship and monies raised during the day. Any surplus would be used for the maintenance of local sports centres.
Teams can register under one of several age groups for both boys and girls. In addition, family members are asked to attend to provide support.
This sports event is designed to be a family day out. The football tournament will have an event village including a kidz’-zone, catering, car parking, mobile changing rooms and toilets. The tournament will take place on the LGA-owned football pitches near the centre of the town, although space is somewhat limited.
Scope
The initial scope of the project includes:
a marketing campaign to promote the event;
a celebrity to open the event;
a website to provide information about the event and handle applications; an event village to support the ‘family day out’; the training of LGA staff as volunteers to run and support the event; back-office processes to handle the applications; fundraising to cover the cost of the event.
The project has been set up with four work streams to deliver this work:
1. Marketing
2. Website
3. Event Village
4. Staff Training
Project Background
The LGA have extensive experience in using PRINCE2 and will run the event as a single project. The project manager is fully conversant with PRINCE2 Agile. One office in the LGA building in the centre of town has been given to the project for the entire duration. The office is across the corridor from the Marketing Department and the project manager has already put a sign on the door that says ‘Mission Control’.
Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.

Staff Training – Additional information
The event will be supervised primarily by LGA staff volunteers. They will need to be trained in various skills so that:

the event is carried out safely and professionally;

staff members are able to give advice on health and fitness.
This is covered by four work packages:
1. Training syllabus:
* High-level design of the manual.
* Content of each module.
2. Course content for safety and professionalism:
* Detailed design of two modules:
* Health and Safety including basic first aid.
* Customer relations to look after people attending the event.
* Piloting the modules with a group of volunteers.
3. Course content tor giving advice on health and fitness:
* Detailed design of two modules:
* Exercise fundamentals including how to warm up and cool down.
* Healthy eating including what types of food are good for you.
* Piloting the modules with a group of volunteers.
4. Training delivery:
* Production of the training manual;
* Delivery of the training to the rest of the volunteers.
The Staff Training Team is staffed by in-house training staff members that have been involved in several waterfall projects but have not had any exposure to agile.
Using the Project Scenario and Staff Training Additional information, answer the following question:
The Staff Training Team had been working to the following assumption:
‘All volunteers will be trained in all training materials.’
Quite late in the project, it has been identified that this assumption is incorrect. As a result, the team manager produced a chart of who needs to be trained in what modules. This was agreed with a customer representative and the team manager made the necessary amendments to the requirements in the backlog within the current timebox.
What BEST explains why the team manager’s approach complies with the ’embrace change’ target?

It applies the target well because the training will be delivered in the most accurate way.

It applies the target well because visualization is the most effective way to communicate change.

It applies the target poorly because the customer subject matter expert should represent the impacted stakeholders.

It applies the target poorly because the training acceptance criteria should be specified in the project product description.

Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.

Marketing – Additional information
The marketing campaign has two key areas to promote:
1. The event itself including the football tournament, event village and fundraising activities.
2. The LGA’s long term aim to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16.
The Marketing Team has received some initial Scrum training but is unsure how it can be applied to their marketing work.
The Marketing Team is keen that the project manager provides them with a clear brief for the campaign before they spend too much time on it.
They have experience of working with a variety of marketing channels, although they are not sure which channel(s) will work most effectively to promote this type of event, and in particular to promote the LGA’s longer term health aims.
The Marketing Team is not clear on the priority to assign to the two aims for the event.
The Marketing Team will publish advertisements and/or promotional material every week, with more information in each issue to keep the message up to date.
Nine releases are scheduled at the end of each of the nine week-long timeboxes.
The nine timeboxes within the marketing work stream are scheduled to include:
advertisements:
a radio interview;
production of a hand-out/flyer;
banners and signs to put up around the town and at the event;
the provision of a website and social media content;
promotional posters to be displayed by local businesses.
Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:
The senior user has specified a second charity to which any proceeds should be donated. All marketing material to be used from now onwards must promote the new charity. Banners promoting only the first charity have already been produced, delivered and approved in a previous timebox. The effort to add the new logo to the existing banners is low.
How should the Marketing Team respond to this change with respect to the banners already created?

Handle it at the detailed level using the quality criteria in the product description for the banner.

Treat it as an item NOT meeting the specification which the banner supplier should rectify.

Escalate it to the project board as a request to change the detail of an existing product.

Address it when planning and prioritizing the work in the current or next timebox.

There is limited space in the Event Village to accommodate all of the equipment, e.g. the trampolines, ‘kidz- zone’, food tent, car park and changing rooms.
It is difficult to assess whether there is sufficient space from the design drawings. One of the team has suggested physically drawing out the actual space occupied by each facility at the site.
Which statement BEST describes whether this approach is a good application of the frequent releases focus area?

It is a good approach because a physical representation will deliver something of use to the project.

It is a good approach because a design should be an interim stage of the Event Village work package.

It is a poor approach because releases need to be put into operational use to receive any feedback.

It is a poor approach because visiting the site of the Event Village is NOT classed as a sub-product.

Which reason BEST explains whether this is a suitable entry for ‘tools and techniques’ in the communication management approach?

It is suitable because the marketing products do NOT suit the use of other agile techniques.

It is suitable because the marketing products are already rich in communication.

It is unsuitable because the other teams will need a means to be updated on progress and feedback.

It is unsuitable because the daily stand-up is NOT a communication tool or technique.

(Note: The companies and people within the scenario are fictional)
Introduction
A Local Government Authority (LGA) has decided to organize a six-a-side football tournament. The tournament will contribute towards achieving the targets set by a national initiative to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16. As part of the LGA’s policy of self-funding, this has to be achieved at zero cost to the LGA (and therefore the local tax payer). The cost of the event will be covered through fees paid by teams registered to take part in the tournament, sponsorship and monies raised during the day. Any surplus would be used for the maintenance of local sports centres.
Teams can register under one of several age groups for both boys and girls. In addition, family members are asked to attend to provide support.
This sports event is designed to be a family day out. The football tournament will have an event village including a kidz’-zone, catering, car parking, mobile changing rooms and toilets. The tournament will take place on the LGA-owned football pitches near the centre of the town, although space is somewhat limited.
Scope
The initial scope of the project includes:
a marketing campaign to promote the event;
a celebrity to open the event;
a website to provide information about the event and handle applications; an event village to support the ‘family day out’; the training of LGA staff as volunteers to run and support the event; back-office processes to handle the applications; fundraising to cover the cost of the event.
The project has been set up with four work streams to deliver this work:
1. Marketing
2. Website
3. Event Village
4. Staff Training
Project Background
The LGA have extensive experience in using PRINCE2 and will run the event as a single project. The project manager is fully conversant with PRINCE2 Agile. One office in the LGA building in the centre of town has been given to the project for the entire duration. The office is across the corridor from the Marketing Department and the project manager has already put a sign on the door that says ‘Mission Control’.
Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.

Event Village – Additional information
The aim of the event village is to provide a range of services and activities for anyone attending the football tournament.
The event village will comprise a number of work packages:
1. Event village design
2. A ‘kids-zone’ which includes trampolines and swings, as well as the opportunity to try out other sporting activities
3. Stalls which will be sold to local businesses to raise funds for the event:
Refreshment stalls within a large food tent. The LGA is keen to promote the culinary diversity of the town whilst adhering to the objective of eating healthily.
There are 30 vendor stalls selling products related to the event.
The LGA has five stalls to promote their longer term aims and to demonstrate current and future initiatives.
4. A car park for 200 cars.
5. Temporary facilities including changing rooms, toilets and shower facilities.
6. Dismantling of the event village and clean up.
The Event Village Team is assembled using staff from various LGA departments who have no experience of working with agile.
Using the Project Scenario and Event Village Additional information, answer the following question:
The project manager used the Agilometer to assess the prevailing agile environment and, consequently, took action to improve the low score achieved on the ‘flexibility on what is delivered’ slider.
When should the project manager undertake a further assessment in order to determine if further action is required to increase the slider score?

Sprint review.

Sprint retrospective.

Release retrospective.

Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.

Marketing – Additional information
The marketing campaign has two key areas to promote:
1. The event itself including the football tournament, event village and fundraising activities.
2. The LGA’s long term aim to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16.
The Marketing Team has received some initial Scrum training but is unsure how it can be applied to their marketing work.
The Marketing Team is keen that the project manager provides them with a clear brief for the campaign before they spend too much time on it.
They have experience of working with a variety of marketing channels, although they are not sure which channel(s) will work most effectively to promote this type of event, and in particular to promote the LGA’s longer term health aims.
The Marketing Team is not clear on the priority to assign to the two aims for the event.
The Marketing Team will publish advertisements and/or promotional material every week, with more information in each issue to keep the message up to date.
Nine releases are scheduled at the end of each of the nine week-long timeboxes.
The nine timeboxes within the marketing work stream are scheduled to include:
advertisements:
a radio interview;
production of a hand-out/flyer;
banners and signs to put up around the town and at the event;
the provision of a website and social media content;
promotional posters to be displayed by local businesses.
Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:
The Marketing Team has created a plan of 9 timeboxes that always end on a Friday. The senior user has decided to visit the Marketing Team every Friday in order to attend their regular reviews.
Which reason BEST explains whether this is a suitable approach for the ‘directing a project’ process?

It is a good approach because regular reviews will provide rich information to assess project viability.

It is a good approach because the senior user will be able to oversee the performance of the team.

It is a poor approach because the senior user should focus on looking at the information radiator instead.

It is a poor approach because the reviews should be scheduled as needed, when products are developed.

Staff Training – Additional information
The event will be supervised primarily by LGA staff volunteers. They will need to be trained in various skills so that:

the event is carried out safely and professionally;

staff members are able to give advice on health and fitness.
This is covered by four work packages:
1. Training syllabus:
* High-level design of the manual.
* Content of each module.
2. Course content for safety and professionalism:
* Detailed design of two modules:
* Health and Safety including basic first aid.
* Customer relations to look after people attending the event.
* Piloting the modules with a group of volunteers.
3. Course content tor giving advice on health and fitness:
* Detailed design of two modules:
* Exercise fundamentals including how to warm up and cool down.
* Healthy eating including what types of food are good for you.
* Piloting the modules with a group of volunteers.
4. Training delivery:
* Production of the training manual;
* Delivery of the training to the rest of the volunteers.
The Staff Training Team is staffed by in-house training staff members that have been involved in several waterfall projects but have not had any exposure to agile.
Using the Project Scenario and Staff Training Additional information, answer the following question:
The Staff Training team manager made a request for an additional full-time customer subject matter expert (CSME) to be allocated to the Staff Training Team for the next timebox, which is in Stage 3.
This person is responsible for health and safety training within the LGA.
What BEST explains why this approach complies with the ‘keep teams stable’ target?

It applies the target well because the team manager should remove obstacles to delivery.

It applies the target well because the relevant skills should be available for each timebox.

It applies the target poorly because the LGA will NOT have access to the health and safety expert during Stage 3.

It applies the target poorly because the CSME should have been added during Stage 2 to improve progress.

‘As the LGA, I want all volunteers to have received mandatory health and safety training so that we can ensure that the event takes place in a safe environment for the public.’ There is a high probability that a suitable trainer may not be available to deliver this mandatory training before the football tournament.
How should this risk be managed by the Staff Training Team in accordance with the five targets?

Set its risk tolerance to zero and agree with the project board to immediately find a suitable a trainer in order to meet the deadline.

Flex the tolerance for this risk to enable the risk to be accepted by the project board at the current level of probability.

Set a high risk tolerance in relation to this risk and monitor the situation in order to deliver on time and hit the deadline.

Remove the delivery of health and safety training from the product backlog in order to deliver on time and within the budget.

Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.

Marketing – Additional information
The marketing campaign has two key areas to promote:
1. The event itself including the football tournament, event village and fundraising activities.
2. The LGA’s long term aim to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16.
The Marketing Team has received some initial Scrum training but is unsure how it can be applied to their marketing work.
The Marketing Team is keen that the project manager provides them with a clear brief for the campaign before they spend too much time on it.
They have experience of working with a variety of marketing channels, although they are not sure which channel(s) will work most effectively to promote this type of event, and in particular to promote the LGA’s longer term health aims.
The Marketing Team is not clear on the priority to assign to the two aims for the event.
The Marketing Team will publish advertisements and/or promotional material every week, with more information in each issue to keep the message up to date.
Nine releases are scheduled at the end of each of the nine week-long timeboxes.
The nine timeboxes within the marketing work stream are scheduled to include:
advertisements:
a radio interview;
production of a hand-out/flyer;
banners and signs to put up around the town and at the event;
the provision of a website and social media content;
promotional posters to be displayed by local businesses.
Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:
The Marketing Team is concerned that if local schools hold their annual fundraiser on the same day as the football tournament, this may cause attendance to be adversely affected.
The team manager has asked the business analyst to investigate this risk further and report back to the team at the next daily stand-up.
Which BEST explains how this approach manages risk?

It is a good approach because the business analyst is responsible for capturing the wider customer view.

It is a good approach because discussions in the daily stand-up are a way to actively manage risk.

It is a poor approach because the team manager should carry out actions related to risks that may impact delivery.

It is a poor approach because this risk is outside the project’s control so it is NOT relevant to the Marketing Team.

NEW QUESTION 34
Project scenario – Get fit with football!
(Note: The companies and people within the scenario are fictional)
Introduction
A Local Government Authority (LGA) has decided to organize a six-a-side football tournament. The tournament will contribute towards achieving the targets set by a national initiative to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16. As part of the LGA’s policy of self-funding, this has to be achieved at zero cost to the LGA (and therefore the local tax payer). The cost of the event will be covered through fees paid by teams registered to take part in the tournament, sponsorship and monies raised during the day. Any surplus would be used for the maintenance of local sports centres.
Teams can register under one of several age groups for both boys and girls. In addition, family members are asked to attend to provide support.
This sports event is designed to be a family day out. The football tournament will have an event village including a kidz’-zone, catering, car parking, mobile changing rooms and toilets. The tournament will take place on the LGA-owned football pitches near the centre of the town, although space is somewhat limited.
Scope
The initial scope of the project includes:
a marketing campaign to promote the event;
a celebrity to open the event;
a website to provide information about the event and handle applications; an event village to support the ‘family day out’; the training of LGA staff as volunteers to run and support the event; back-office processes to handle the applications; fundraising to cover the cost of the event.
The project has been set up with four work streams to deliver this work:
1. Marketing
2. Website
3. Event Village
4. Staff Training
Project Background
The LGA have extensive experience in using PRINCE2 and will run the event as a single project. The project manager is fully conversant with PRINCE2 Agile. One office in the LGA building in the centre oftown has been given to the project for the entire duration. The office is across the corridor from the Marketing Department and the project manager has already put a sign on the door that says ‘Mission Control’.
Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.

Website – Additional information
A new website will be built for the event. There are five work packages within this product:
1. Initial homepage:
Website showing the event details, competition rules, etc.
2. Team Registration functionality:
team name, player’s names and ages;
contact information;
payment;
lunch pack requirements (includes any special dietary needs);
car parking requirements.
3. Social media promoting the event and its aims.
4. Applications (apps) to promote healthy lifestyles including fitness and healthy eating apps.
5. Health Park:
An online knowledge base about healthy lifestyles that includes a discussion forum.
The Website Team have a lot of experience in IT and have been using agile for several years. They are delivering the website through five two-week timeboxes. The team uses a Scrum Master to facilitate and the Scrum process and coach people accordingly.
The Website Team are very good at Scrum. They have created a set of tasks to assess more difficult work and they refer to this as sprint zero.
Using the Project Scenario and Website Additional information, answer the following question:
The following assessment was made initially during the ‘starting up a project’ process:
‘The Website Team is already using Scrum and it is expected that this team will be familiar with agile techniques. However, the Staff Training Team is less familiar with the agile ways of working.’ Training on agile techniques was given to the Staff Training Team as a result of this assessment.
As part of the ‘closing a project” process, the following observation was made:
‘The Staff Training Team gained more understanding of what to fix and what to flex as the project moved into Stage 3.’ Why should this observation appear in the end project report?

The end project report should sum up the results of each timebox and stage.

The end project report should hand over the remaining Could Haves to operational staff.

The end project report should review the use of the Agilometer and the agile ways of working.

The end project report should review how much scope was delivered by the project.

Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:
The project manager has agreed that the ‘Mission Control’ room will have an issue register on the wall for project issues and all teams will display their own issue register on their own team wall as well.
Which BEST explains if this approach is suitable?

The issue registers may be difficult to keep synchronized across the teams so this should be avoided.

Each team will be able to physically log and update issues during their daily stand-ups.

A more formal approach would encourage issues to be raised that might otherwise be missed.

A spreadsheet that all teams have access to would be a more agile way of working.

Event Village – Additional information
The aim of the event village is to provide a range of services and activities for anyone attending the football tournament.
The event village will comprise a number of work packages:
1. Event village design
2. A ‘kids-zone’ which includes trampolines and swings, as well as the opportunity to try out other sporting activities
3. Stalls which will be sold to local businesses to raise funds for the event:
Refreshment stalls within a large food tent. The LGA is keen to promote the culinary diversity of the town whilst adhering to the objective of eating healthily.
There are 30 vendor stalls selling products related to the event.
The LGA has five stalls to promote their longer term aims and to demonstrate current and future initiatives.
4. A car park for 200 cars.
5. Temporary facilities including changing rooms, toilets and shower facilities.
6. Dismantling of the event village and clean up.
