NEW QUESTION # 30
Project scenario - Get fit with football!
(Note: The companies and people within the scenario are fictional)
Introduction
A Local Government Authority (LGA) has decided to organize a six-a-side football tournament. The tournament will contribute towards achieving the targets set by a national initiative to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16. As part of the LGA's policy of self-funding, this has to be achieved at zero cost to the LGA (and therefore the local tax payer). The cost of the event will be covered through fees paid by teams registered to take part in the tournament, sponsorship and monies raised during the day. Any surplus would be used for the maintenance of local sports centres.
Teams can register under one of several age groups for both boys and girls. In addition, family members are asked to attend to provide support.
This sports event is designed to be a family day out. The football tournament will have an event village including a kidz'-zone, catering, car parking, mobile changing rooms and toilets. The tournament will take place on the LGA-owned football pitches near the centre of the town, although space is somewhat limited.
Scope
The initial scope of the project includes:
a marketing campaign to promote the event;
a celebrity to open the event;
a website to provide information about the event and handle applications; an event village to support the 'family day out'; the training of LGA staff as volunteers to run and support the event; back-office processes to handle the applications; fundraising to cover the cost of the event.
The project has been set up with four work streams to deliver this work:
1. Marketing
2. Website
3. Event Village
4. Staff Training
Project Background
The LGA have extensive experience in using PRINCE2 and will run the event as a single project. The project manager is fully conversant with PRINCE2 Agile. One office in the LGA building in the centre of town has been given to the project for the entire duration. The office is across the corridor from the Marketing Department and the project manager has already put a sign on the door that says 'Mission Control'.
Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.
Marketing - Additional information
The marketing campaign has two key areas to promote:
1. The event itself including the football tournament, event village and fundraising activities.
2. The LGA's long term aim to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16.
The Marketing Team has received some initial Scrum training but is unsure how it can be applied to their marketing work.
The Marketing Team is keen that the project manager provides them with a clear brief for the campaign before they spend too much time on it.
They have experience of working with a variety of marketing channels, although they are not sure which channel(s) will work most effectively to promote this type of event, and in particular to promote the LGA's longer term health aims.
The Marketing Team is not clear on the priority to assign to the two aims for the event.
The Marketing Team will publish advertisements and/or promotional material every week, with more information in each issue to keep the message up to date.
Nine releases are scheduled at the end of each of the nine week-long timeboxes.
The nine timeboxes within the marketing work stream are scheduled to include:
advertisements:
a radio interview;
production of a hand-out/flyer;
banners and signs to put up around the town and at the event;
the provision of a website and social media content;
promotional posters to be displayed by local businesses.
Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:
The project manager has agreed that the 'Mission Control' room will have an issue register on the wall for project issues and all teams will display their own issue register on their own team wall as well.
Which BEST explains if this approach is suitable?
- A. A spreadsheet that all teams have access to would be a more agile way of working.
- B. The issue registers may be difficult to keep synchronized across the teams so this should be avoided.
- C. A more formal approach would encourage issues to be raised that might otherwise be missed.
- D. Each team will be able to physically log and update issues during their daily stand-ups.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Having issue registers displayed on the team walls allows for immediate visibility and encourages team members to log and discuss issues as they arise during daily stand-ups. This promotes a culture of transparency and collaboration, making it easier for teams to manage and address issues in a timely manner.

Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.
Staff Training - Additional information
The event will be supervised primarily by LGA staff volunteers. They will need to be trained in various skills so that:
- A. The AC should be made transparent for maintenance by the training department.
- B. the event is carried out safely and professionally;
- C. staff members are able to give advice on health and fitness.
This is covered by four work packages:
1. Training syllabus:
* High-level design of the manual.
* Content of each module.
2. Course content for safety and professionalism:
* Detailed design of two modules:
* Health and Safety including basic first aid.
* Customer relations to look after people attending the event.
* Piloting the modules with a group of volunteers.
3. Course content tor giving advice on health and fitness:
* Detailed design of two modules:
* Exercise fundamentals including how to warm up and cool down.
* Healthy eating including what types of food are good for you.
* Piloting the modules with a group of volunteers.
4. Training delivery:
* Production of the training manual;
* Delivery of the training to the rest of the volunteers.
The Staff Training Team is staffed by in-house training staff members that have been involved in several waterfall projects but have not had any exposure to agile.
Using the Project Scenario and Staff Training Additional information, answer the following question:
The project product description for the sports event includes the following acceptance criteria (AC):
* It must be possible for the training materials to be maintained in the future by the LGA training department.
* The training materials must be usable for future events run by the LGA.
Which reason explains why the team manager should protect the level of quality in relation to the acceptance criteria? - D. The AC should be tested using spikes to trial the maintenance procedures.
- E. The AC should be met so that the cost of ownership of the materials is acceptable.
- F. The AC should be delivered as a minimum viable product.
Answer: F
Explanation:
Ensuring that the acceptance criteria are met is crucial for maintaining the quality of the training materials.
This not only affects the usability for future events but also impacts the long-term cost of ownership, as high- quality materials will require less maintenance and adaptation over time. Protecting quality helps ensure that the investment in the training materials is justified and sustainable for future use.

Using the Project Scenario and Website Additional information, answer the following question:
During the 'initiating a project' process, the project manager has decided to use the Cynefin framework to assess the project.
As a result, the following observation was made as part of the assessment:
'There is a relationship between the social media websites promoting active lifestyles and participation in sport. This in turn leads to an increase in the health and fitness of the people.
It will not be possible to measure the effect of the social media websites until after the project. The results of early communications on the websites should be reviewed in order to identify what effect it may be having, and why. This will then feed into further longer term initiatives at the LGA.' How should this relationship be assessed according to the Cynefin framework?
- A. Obvious.
- B. Chaotic
- C. Disorder
- D. Complex.
Answer: D
Explanation:
In the complex domain, cause-and-effect relationships are not immediately apparent and can only be understood in retrospect. The relationship between social media websites promoting active lifestyles and their effect on health and fitness is not straightforward, as it involves multiple interacting factors. Since it will not be possible to measure the impact until after the project, the focus should be on observing and analyzing early communications and their effects. This aligns with the Cynefin framework's recommendation to probe, sense, and respond, allowing for adaptive management based on feedback and insights gained throughout the project.

NEW QUESTION # 38
Project scenario - Get fit with football!
(Note: The companies and people within the scenario are fictional)
Introduction
A Local Government Authority (LGA) has decided to organize a six-a-side football tournament. The tournament will contribute towards achieving the targets set by a national initiative to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16. As part of the LGA's policy of self-funding, this has to be achieved at zero cost to the LGA (and therefore the local tax payer). The cost of the event will be covered through fees paid by teams registered to take part in the tournament, sponsorship and monies raised during the day. Any surplus would be used for the maintenance of local sports centres.
Teams can register under one of several age groups for both boys and girls. In addition, family members are asked to attend to provide support.
This sports event is designed to be a family day out. The football tournament will have an event village including a kidz'-zone, catering, car parking, mobile changing rooms and toilets. The tournament will take place on the LGA-owned football pitches near the centre of the town, although space is somewhat limited.
Scope
The initial scope of the project includes:
a marketing campaign to promote the event;
a celebrity to open the event;
a website to provide information about the event and handle applications; an event village to support the 'family day out'; the training of LGA staff as volunteers to run and support the event; back-office processes to handle the applications; fundraising to cover the cost of the event.
The project has been set up with four work streams to deliver this work:
1. Marketing
2. Website
3. Event Village
4. Staff Training
Project Background
The LGA have extensive experience in using PRINCE2 and will run the event as a single project. The project manager is fully conversant with PRINCE2 Agile. One office in the LGA building in the centre of town has been given to the project for the entire duration. The office is across the corridor from the Marketing Department and the project manager has already put a sign on the door that says 'Mission Control'.
Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.
Staff Training - Additional information
The event will be supervised primarily by LGA staff volunteers. They will need to be trained in various skills so that:
- A. the event is carried out safely and professionally;
- B. It is a good approach because a design should be an interim stage of the Event Village work package.
- C. It is a poor approach because releases need to be put into operational use to receive any feedback.
- D. staff members are able to give advice on health and fitness.
This is covered by four work packages:
1. Training syllabus:
* High-level design of the manual.
* Content of each module.
2. Course content for safety and professionalism:
* Detailed design of two modules:
* Health and Safety including basic first aid.
* Customer relations to look after people attending the event.
* Piloting the modules with a group of volunteers.
3. Course content tor giving advice on health and fitness:
* Detailed design of two modules:
* Exercise fundamentals including how to warm up and cool down.
* Healthy eating including what types of food are good for you.
* Piloting the modules with a group of volunteers.
4. Training delivery:
* Production of the training manual;
* Delivery of the training to the rest of the volunteers.
The Staff Training Team is staffed by in-house training staff members that have been involved in several waterfall projects but have not had any exposure to agile.
Using the Project Scenario and Staff Training Additional information, answer the following question:
The safety and professionalism course content timebox includes three high-level requirements.
During timebox planning, it was identified that it will not be possible to deliver everything relating to all three of these requirements during the timebox.
What is the effect of setting the time tolerance to zero for the timebox? - E. It is a good approach because a physical representation will deliver something of use to the project.
- F. It is a poor approach because visiting the site of the Event Village is NOT classed as a sub-product.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Setting the time tolerance to zero means that the team cannot exceed the planned duration of the timebox.
This necessitates a focus on prioritizing the requirements to ensure that the most critical aspects can be delivered within the allocated time. Decomposing the high-level requirements helps identify which elements are essential and can be achieved in the time available.

Using the Project Scenario and Event Village Additional information, answer the following question:
A local newspaper has reported the results of a survey. The survey indicated that local residents are concerned that costs from the event may be incurred by local tax payers.
Which action would have helped to avoid this situation?
- A. Sharing the delivery team's updated burn-charts with the local newspaper before the results of the survey were published.
- B. Publishing updated costs of the event estimated using a points system.
- C. Inviting a representative of the local press to participate and report upon a release review at the end of stage 4.
- D. Publishing regularly updated advertisements fisting the organizations that are sponsoring the event.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Regularly updating the public about the event's funding sources, particularly the sponsors, would have helped to alleviate concerns by clearly demonstrating that the event is being funded through external means rather than local taxpayer dollars. This transparency can build trust and reassure residents about the financial aspects of the event.

A requirement for the changing room facilities in the Event Village has been defined as a technical story as follows:
'Changing room facilities should have water pressure between 1.5 - 3 bar and must have a water pressure of at least between 0.1 - 0.5 bar.' Has this requirement been recorded correctly?
- A. No, because non-functional requirements should only be documented as quality criteria.
- B. Yes, because non-functional requirements may apply to more than one user story.
- C. Yes, because a product's performance range should only appear as a technical story.
- D. No, because non-functional requirements should always be part of the user stories.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Non-functional requirements, such as performance criteria (in this case, water pressure), should typically be included as part of the user stories to ensure they are considered in the context of the overall functionality and user experience. This integration helps maintain a holistic view of what the system should deliver, ensuring that both functional and non-functional aspects are addressed together.

Using the Project Scenario and Staff Training Additional information, answer the following question:
The Stall Training Team has developed the following user story:
'As the LGA, I want all volunteers to have received mandatory health and safety training so that we can ensure that the event takes place in a safe environment for the public.' There is a high probability that a suitable trainer may not be available to deliver this mandatory training before the football tournament.
How should this risk be managed by the Staff Training Team in accordance with the five targets? - E. Set its risk tolerance to zero and agree with the project board to immediately find a suitable a trainer in order to meet the deadline.
- F. Set a high risk tolerance in relation to this risk and monitor the situation in order to deliver on time and hit the deadline.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Flexing the risk tolerance allows the team to acknowledge the current situation while enabling the project board to understand and accept the risk. This approach facilitates informed decision-making regarding potential actions to mitigate the risk without immediately resorting to drastic measures, such as removing the training from the backlog. It keeps the requirement for health and safety training in focus while managing expectations around its delivery.

An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.
Marketing - Additional information
The marketing campaign has two key areas to promote:
1. The event itself including the football tournament, event village and fundraising activities.
2. The LGA's long term aim to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16.
The Marketing Team has received some initial Scrum training but is unsure how it can be applied to their marketing work.
The Marketing Team is keen that the project manager provides them with a clear brief for the campaign before they spend too much time on it.
They have experience of working with a variety of marketing channels, although they are not sure which channel(s) will work most effectively to promote this type of event, and in particular to promote the LGA's longer term health aims.
The Marketing Team is not clear on the priority to assign to the two aims for the event.
The Marketing Team will publish advertisements and/or promotional material every week, with more information in each issue to keep the message up to date.
Nine releases are scheduled at the end of each of the nine week-long timeboxes.
The nine timeboxes within the marketing work stream are scheduled to include:
advertisements:
a radio interview;
production of a hand-out/flyer;
banners and signs to put up around the town and at the event;
the provision of a website and social media content;
promotional posters to be displayed by local businesses.
Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:
The project manager recommends that Stage 2 should be broken down further with more stage boundaries linked to the weekly publication of a newspaper advertisement.
Using the Timeline, which statement BEST evaluates this proposal in relation to the 'manage by stages' principle?
- A. It applies the principle well because short stage boundaries provide more opportunity for inter-team collaboration.
- B. It applies the principle poorly because stage boundaries should be set at the beginning of each new timebox.
- C. It applies the principle well because short stage boundaries will enable the project to fail-fast and learn- fast.
- D. It applies the principle poorly because the stage boundaries should typically be monthly on a three- month project.
Answer: C
Explanation:
The 'manage by stages' principle emphasizes breaking the project into manageable stages to assess progress and adapt as necessary. By creating shorter stage boundaries linked to the weekly publication of advertisements, the project can quickly identify issues and adjust strategies, fostering a learn-fast approach.

Using the Project Scenario and Staff Training Additional information, answer the following question:
The Staff Training Team had been working to the following assumption:
'All volunteers will be trained in all training materials.'
Quite late in the project, it has been identified that this assumption is incorrect. As a result, the team manager produced a chart of who needs to be trained in what modules. This was agreed with a customer representative and the team manager made the necessary amendments to the requirements in the backlog within the current timebox.
What BEST explains why the team manager's approach complies with the 'embrace change' target? - D. It applies the target well because the training will be delivered in the most accurate way.
- E. It applies the target poorly because the customer subject matter expert should represent the impacted stakeholders.
- F. It applies the target well because visualization is the most effective way to communicate change.
Answer: B
Explanation:
By recognizing the incorrect assumption and producing a chart to clarify who needs to be trained in which modules, the team manager is adapting to the new information and ensuring that the training is aligned with the actual needs. This responsiveness to change helps deliver training more effectively, reflecting the principle of embracing change to improve outcomes.

Using the Project Scenario and Website Additional information, answer the following question:
The project has been set up with multiple teams - one for each area of delivery. Each team has its own team manager.
The LGA employee who is an expert in health has been appointed to act as customer representative to all four of the delivery teams.
What BEST explains how this approach tailors the organization theme?
- A. It tailors the theme well because the customer representative provides specialist information to the teams.
- B. It tailors the theme poorly because a customer subject matter expert should provide expert knowledge on health.
- C. It tailors the theme well because the customer representative should work full time on the project.
- D. It tailors the theme poorly because each delivery team should have dedicated resources and a stable team.
Answer: A
Explanation:

The LGA have extensive experience in using PRINCE2 and will run the event as a single project. The project manager is fully conversant with PRINCE2 Agile. One office in the LGA building in the centre of town has been given to the project for the entire duration. The office is across the corridor from the Marketing Department and the project manager has already put a sign on the door that says 'Mission Control'.
Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.
Website - Additional information
A new website will be built for the event. There are five work packages within this product:
1. Initial homepage:
Website showing the event details, competition rules, etc.
2. Team Registration functionality:
team name, player's names and ages;
contact information;
payment;
lunch pack requirements (includes any special dietary needs);
car parking requirements.
3. Social media promoting the event and its aims.
4. Applications (apps) to promote healthy lifestyles including fitness and healthy eating apps.
5. Health Park:
An online knowledge base about healthy lifestyles that includes a discussion forum.
The Website Team have a lot of experience in IT and have been using agile for several years. They are delivering the website through five two-week timeboxes. The team uses a Scrum Master to facilitate and the Scrum process and coach people accordingly.
The Website Team are very good at Scrum. They have created a set of tasks to assess more difficult work and they refer to this as sprint zero.
Using the Project Scenario and Website Additional information, answer the following question:
The Apps and Social Media work package includes the following requirements:
1. Fitness app - Must Have
2. Healthy eating app - Should Have
The burn-down chart is showing an ever-increasing negative gap between the ideal rate of progress and what has actually been delivered. The team manager decided not to deliver the healthy eating app. However, it is still forecast that requirement 1 cannot be completed within the current timebox.
The team manager escalated the issue to the project manager who instructed the team manager to immediately remove the burn-down chart from the information radiator.
What BEST explains how this approach applies the 'manage by exception' principle while taking into account the PRINCE2 Agile behaviours?
- A. It applies the principle poorly because everyone in the Website Team should be aware that the work package is outside of tolerance.
- B. It applies the principle well because the project manager's decision helps the Website Team self- organize within the constraints of the work package.
- C. It applies the principle well because the project manager will now decide how to proceed with the issue.
- D. It applies the principle poorly because the Website Team should be empowered to deal with issues relating to the work package.
Answer: D
Explanation:
By removing the burn-down chart from the information radiator, the project manager limits the team's ability to visualize and manage their progress and challenges. In PRINCE2 Agile, teams should be empowered to handle issues within their work package, and transparency through tools like the burn-down chart is essential for self-management and collaboration.
NEW QUESTION # 46
Which is a benefit that can be realized by a PRINCE2 organization seeking to adopt PRINCE2 Agile?
- A. Lower cost of ownership throughout the life of the project's delivered product(s).
- B. Comprehensive documentation is reduced as working software is a priority.
- C. Reduced number of roles by combining project manager with team manager.
- D. Improved maintenance of a business case throughout the project
Answer: B
Explanation:
This benefit reflects the Agile principle of prioritizing working software over extensive documentation, which can lead to more efficient project delivery.
NEW QUESTION # 47
Project scenario - Get fit with football!
(Note: The companies and people within the scenario are fictional)
Introduction
A Local Government Authority (LGA) has decided to organize a six-a-side football tournament. The tournament will contribute towards achieving the targets set by a national initiative to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16. As part of the LGA's policy of self-funding, this has to be achieved at zero cost to the LGA (and therefore the local tax payer). The cost of the event will be covered through fees paid by teams registered to take part in the tournament, sponsorship and monies raised during the day. Any surplus would be used for the maintenance of local sports centres.
Teams can register under one of several age groups for both boys and girls. In addition, family members are asked to attend to provide support.
This sports event is designed to be a family day out. The football tournament will have an event village including a kidz'-zone, catering, car parking, mobile changing rooms and toilets. The tournament will take place on the LGA-owned football pitches near the centre of the town, although space is somewhat limited.
Scope
The initial scope of the project includes:
a marketing campaign to promote the event;
a celebrity to open the event;
a website to provide information about the event and handle applications; an event village to support the 'family day out';
the training of LGA staff as volunteers to run and support the event;
back-office processes to handle the applications;
fundraising to cover the cost of the event.
The project has been set up with four work streams to deliver this work:
1. Marketing
2. Website
3. Event Village
4. Staff Training
Project Background
The LGA have extensive experience in using PRINCE2 and will run the event as a single project. The project manager is fully conversant with PRINCE2 Agile. One office in the LGA building in the centre of town has been given to the project for the entire duration. The office is across the corridor from the Marketing Department and the project manager has already put a sign on the door that says 'Mission Control'.
Timeline
An initial timeline has been suggested and is shown in the following diagram. The timeline may evolve due to the agile ways of working. The timeline shows how work streams are broken down into work packages and/or timeboxes.
Marketing - Additional information
The marketing campaign has two key areas to promote:
1. The event itself including the football tournament, event village and fundraising activities.
2. The LGA's long term aim to improve the fitness of children under the age of 16.
The Marketing Team has received some initial Scrum training but is unsure how it can be applied to their marketing work.
The Marketing Team is keen that the project manager provides them with a clear brief for the campaign before they spend too much time on it.
They have experience of working with a variety of marketing channels, although they are not sure which channel(s) will work most effectively to promote this type of event, and in particular to promote the LGA's longer term health aims.
The Marketing Team is not clear on the priority to assign to the two aims for the event.
The Marketing Team will publish advertisements and/or promotional material every week, with more information in each issue to keep the message up to date.
Nine releases are scheduled at the end of each of the nine week-long timeboxes.
The nine timeboxes within the marketing work stream are scheduled to include:
advertisements:
a radio interview;
production of a hand-out/flyer;
banners and signs to put up around the town and at the event;
the provision of a website and social media content;
promotional posters to be displayed by local businesses.
Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:
The Marketing Team have noted in their daily stand-up that they cannot work out the versions and review status of the information and photos which will appear on the website pages.
Which core practice might be the MOST useful to immediately help with the 'managing product delivery' process?
- A. Carry out a safe-to-fail experiment to identify a better way of working.
- B. Identify the effect of delaying the delivery of a web page in a daily stand-up.
- C. Visualize the status of the work using a 'ticket' board with 'swim lanes'.
- D. Refer to a cumulative flow diagram to identify the status of the remaining work.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Using a 'ticket' board with 'swim lanes' allows the Marketing Team to visualize the different versions and review statuses of the information and photos for the website. This practice helps clarify the current state of work, promotes transparency, and facilitates better communication within the team, ultimately supporting effective management of product delivery.

Using the Project Scenario and Event Village Additional information, answer the following question:
As a: Footballer participating in the event
I want to: Have a private cubicle to change in before my football match, without having to wait for more than
5 minutes
So that: I can be ready for the game
Which statement explains whether the 'function' in this user story is appropriate?
- A. The function is good because it contains a time element that can be measured.
- B. The function is good because it contains a solution for the requirement.
- C. The function is poor because it contains a performance element that is better suited to a technical story.
- D. The function is poor because it does NOT contain any prioritization of the requirement.
Answer: C
Explanation:
While the user story describes the desired functionality of having a private cubicle, the inclusion of a specific performance element (waiting time of no more than 5 minutes) is more aligned with non-functional requirements, which are typically documented as technical stories. This could lead to confusion about the primary function being requested, as it mixes functional and performance criteria.
