SH - Plan and Manage Quality Flashcards
What is Timeboxing?
A previously agreed period of time during which a person or a team works steadily towards completion of some goal. Rather than allow work to continue until the goal is reached, and evaluating the time taken, the timebox approach consists of stopping work when the time limit is reached and evaluating what was accomplished.
Who are T-shaped team members?
The vertical bar on the letter T represents the depth of related skills and expertise in a single field, whereas the horizontal bar is the ability to collaborate across disciplines with experts in other areas and to apply knowledge in areas of expertise other than one’s own.
What is procurement audit?
A method in project management that formally evaluates the performance of the supplier based on the contract as well as the efficacy of the procurement tool. It is also used to create a record that can be used to shape and streamline the procurement practices of the organization.
What is Requirements management plan?
Is a component of the project management plan that describes how project and product requirements will be analyzed, documented, and managed.
What is Scope management plan?
Is a component of the project management plan that describes how the scope will be defined, developed, monitored, controlled, and validated.
What are Seven Tools of Quality?
Cause and Effect Diagrams
Check Sheets
Control Charts
Flow Charts
Histogram
Pareto Charts
Scatter Diagrams
What does histogram show and how can be used in quality analysis?
It can show the number of defects per deliverable, a ranking of the cause of defects, the number of times each process is noncompliant, or other representations of project or product defects.
What’s Pareto chart and difference from histogram?
Like the histogram, the Pareto uses the bar placement to convey information. The key difference being that in a Pareto, the bars are organized by the order of impact.
What is Flow Charts?
A graphic representation showing the interconnectedness of steps in a sequential process. In quality mgmt, it show a series of steps that lead to a defect.
What is Cause and Effect Diagrams / Fishbone Diagrams / Ishikawa Diagram?
It helps the project team visualize the root cause of the problem and eliminate bottlenecks. Also benefits are: promote the teamwork (brainstorming) and structured analysis and thinking.
What are Check Sheets?
The check sheet (checklist) ensures that all of the tasks are completed since the owner of the check sheet must enter a value next to each task. When he or she sees that there is a value missing beside a task, he or she will then promptly complete the missing task.
What are Scatter Diagrams?
Is a graph that shows the relationship between two variables. A Scatter diagram can demonstrate a relationship between any element of a process, environment, or activity on one axis and a quality defect on the other axis.

What is Control Chart?
Is designed to detect variations within the project and alert you when the values go beyond preset control limits. It helps you to identify variations and patterns that should be investigated.
What is Rule of 7 in control chart?
A run of seven or more consecutive points in a control chart, either above the mean, or below the mean, or continuously increasing or decreasing, may indicate the process may be out-of-control
