A

Occurs when requirements become more clearly defined as the project advances.

17
Q

What is contained in the project scope statement?

A
  • The description of project scope, major deliverables, assumptions, and constraints
  • Project and Product Scope
  • Deliverables described in detail
  • Common understanding of the project scope among stakeholders
18
Q

What is a Work Breakdown Structure?

A

Hierarchical decomposition of the total scope of work to be carried out by the project team to accomplish the project objectives and create the required deliverables. Each descending level of the WBS represents an increasingly detailed definition of the project work

19
Q

What work does the WBS represent?

A
  • Work specified in the project scope statement
20
Q

What does work refer to in the WBS?

A
  • Products or deliverables that are the result of an activity, not just the activity itself
21
Q

What is a work package?

A

The lowest level component of the WBS, the individual “work” Legos to build the WBS with.

22
Q

What is used to describe a scope baseline?

A
  • Approved version of the scope statement
  • Work breakdown structure
  • Associated WBS dictionary
23
Q

What is decomposition?

A

A technique that allows you to divide project deliverables into small, manageable parts (AKA Work packages)
- Allows you to estimate and manage project cost and duration
Assign a role to activities

24
Q

How do you generally decompose a WBS?

A
  1. Identify your deliverables and related work
  2. Structure and organize the WBS
  3. Decompose upper WBS levels into detailed, lower-level components
  4. Develop and assign identification codes to WBS components
  5. Verify the correct amount of decomposition for the deliverables was used
25
Q

What is rolling wave planning?

A

For subcomponents that won’t be able to decompose until a future time, this is the process of waiting until deliverables or subcomponents are agreed upon, and then developing the details of the WBS

26
Q

What is the validate scope process?
