The document contains multiple choice questions about project management concepts including: - There are different formats for developing work breakdown structures (WBS), and defining and documenting project scope occurs prior to a project's start. - Benchmarking involves collecting ideas by examining other projects or products, internally or externally. - The bottom-up approach starts with largest project items and breaks them into smaller components when creating a WBS.

1. 8. The specific things that get done when executing tasks of the WBS are the same between
different projects.
a. True b. False
9. There is not just one format for developing a WBS, plenty of companies provide a variety of
different formats for developing WBSs.
a. True b. False
10. In IT projects, this is the name we commonly use to describe a specific unit of defined and
expected output from the project.
a. variance b. scope c. deliverable d. work package
11. While there are many usable descriptions of this, which of statement below is the best at
describing scope?
a. each level of work that is outlined in a work breakdown structure
b. end product created as part of a project that is delivered to the client
c. tasks that are decomposed into smaller tasks in a work breakdown structure
d. work involved in creating the products and the processes used to create them
12. Prior to the start of a project an action is usually engaged in during which we define and
document the various features and functions to be produced by the project, as well as the
processes to be used for creating them.
a. Collecting requirements b. Defining scope c. Controlling scope d. Validating scope
13. If I am going to collect ideas by looking at the practices and characteristics of other projects
or products, either within my organization or external to my organization, then I am performing:
a. variances b. benchmarking c. prototyping d. decomposition
14. Among the multiple approached for creating a WBS, there is one that starts with the largest
items within the project and then breaks them into smaller and smaller ones. This is called the
___________ approach.
a. analogy b. bottom-up c. top-down d. mind mapping
