The correct answer is A.
The fact that such a discussion is occurring indicates a lack of clarity as to why the customer requested the 2,000-call capacity. Generally, a difference in requirements resolved in favor of the customer. However, it is the project manager’s responsibility to inform the customer of other options.

This is a tough, but common, situation. Choice B is commonly done. Even though a letter of intent is not binding in a court of law, it does make the seller feel more comfortable about expending funds before a contract is signed. Notice how much of the question is extraneous. Expect questions on the exam that are wordy, distracting from the real problem at hand, and have whole paragraphs of information that is irrelevant to the real problem.

The correct answer is A.
Choice B might help make sure things get done on time and that people know what work they need to do and when, but it is not related to quality. Choice C is looking backward. It is reactive, so it is not the best choice. Choice D deals with when people will be moved on and off the project. It does not deal with quality. Choice A is a better answer because it directly deals with quality.

Would you select a choice that said “remove the resource,” like choice A? Why? There is no need for the project manager to take such drastic action, because he would have accounted for the team member’s level of experience and productivity in the project management plan. Since training for project work is the cost of the project, choice B cannot be right. Choice C is not correct, as no impact to the project is referenced in the question. Mentoring (choice D) is the only logical choice, and work that a project manager may be frequently called on to perform.

This question relates real-world situations to risk types. Did you realize that the entire first paragraph is extraneous? Based on the question, you cannot delete the work to avoid it, nor can you insure or outsource to transfer the risk. This leaves acceptance as the only correct choice.

This is a question that looks for your understanding of the term breach, and its impact on your project. In this situation, the seller has NOT breached the contract; he has not failed to meet a deliverable. It says he is having trouble meeting it. Until a breach occurs, you do not need to take legal action. Therefore, choice A would not be the best option. Many people pick choice C, but this is not correct because it does not deal with the problem. It simply says, “You must find them anyway.” Choice D is not correct since you still need the effort completed and moving into closure will not provide the required deliverable. This leaves choice B, which implies that since the contract has not been breached, the best thing to do would be to prevent the breach. You could help the seller find other resources. They may be found internally, or you may have a better understanding of the availability of resources in your area.
