| Question: You are managing a heavy equipment manufacturing project that involves many mechanical, electrical as well as IT staff. Your team prepared a schedule network diagram using duration estimates with dependencies and constraints. Your team also calculated the critical path for the project using late and early values. Today, your project office has indicated about the non-availability of some of the resources you planned for the project. Now, you explore the possibility of modifying the schedule to account for limited resources. What is your best possible step in such a situation? |
| A. Recalculate critical path using the critical chain method |
| B. Perform resource leveling to account for limited resources |
| C. Use crashing or fast tracking to level resources across the project |
| D. Apply leads and lags to develop a viable schedule |

| Question: You have been managing a research project that is intended to create Genetically Modified fruits using Genetic Engineering techniques. Since many legal issues are involved in this process, you created contingency allowances by using different quantitative analysis methods to account for cost uncertainty. You have just wrappedup a brainstorming session with your team in the execution phase to monitor new risks evolved in the project over past few weeks and to establish new risk response plans. What should you do if you want to allocate more contingency reserves to account for new risks? |
| A. Perform the reserve analysis to compare the amount of contingency reserves remaining to the amount of risk remaining |
| B. Perform Monte Carlo analysis to compare the amount of contingency reserves remaining to the amount of risk remaining |
| C. Perform the variance and trend analysis to compare planned results to the actual results |
| D. Perform the quantitative risk analysis to determine the outstanding risks |
