NEW QUESTION # 21
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.
Event Village - Additional information
The aim of the event village is to provide a range of services and activities for anyone attending the football tournament.
The event village will comprise a number of work packages:
1. Event village design
2. A 'kids-zone' which includes trampolines and swings, as well as the opportunity to try out other sporting activities
3. Stalls which will be sold to local businesses to raise funds for the event:
Refreshment stalls within a large food tent. The LGA is keen to promote the culinary diversity of the town whilst adhering to the objective of eating healthily.
There are 30 vendor stalls selling products related to the event.
The LGA has five stalls to promote their longer term aims and to demonstrate current and future initiatives.
4. A car park for 200 cars.
5. Temporary facilities including changing rooms, toilets and shower facilities.
6. Dismantling of the event village and clean up.
The Event Village Team is assembled using staff from various LGA departments who have no experience of working with agile.
Using the Project Scenario and Event Village Additional information, answer the following question:
The car park must have space for the following:
30 vendor stall vehicles
8 VIP visitors
10 officials
2 Emergency Services vehicles
Which statement is most likely to be included in the project product description under the heading Customer's Quality Expectations?
- A. There are 50 parking spaces available for pre-allocated parking.
- B. Car parking spaces need to be 2.4 metres by 4.8 metres.
- C. 48 'standard' parking spaces and 2 larger spaces for emergency services vehicles.
- D. There will be sufficient car parking for all event visitors and officials.
Answer: D
Explanation:
This statement captures the overarching customer expectation regarding parking capacity, ensuring that all necessary participants (vendors, VIPs, officials, and emergency services) have adequate space at the event. It focuses on the outcome that the customer desires, which is a functional requirement for the event.

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:
Many Marketing Team members were expressing frustration that some members of the team had worked only on specific products and had not helped in the delivery of others. Therefore, the Marketing Team produced a Glad! Sad! Mad! board during a recent retrospective.
Which statement explains why this approach to identifying issues is appropriate for the 'controlling a stage' process?
- A. Glad! Sad! Mad! is a feedback technique that focuses on feelings and helps to identify improvements.
- B. The retrospective empowers the delivery teams to work with a visual approach durinq a timebox.
- C. A retrospective should identity all areas of improvement that should be actioned by a team.
- D. Glad! Sad! Mad! is a feedback technique used in a retrospective to monitor the progress of a team.
Answer: A
Explanation:
The Glad! Sad! Mad! board allows team members to express their feelings about their experiences during the stage, helping to surface issues and areas for improvement. This emotional feedback can be crucial in identifying specific challenges within the team dynamics and product delivery, facilitating better control and adjustments for future stages.

Using the Project Scenario and Marketing Additional information, answer the following question:
The Marketing Team is concerned that if local schools hold their annual fundraiser on the same day as the football tournament, this may cause attendance to be adversely affected.
The team manager has asked the business analyst to investigate this risk further and report back to the team at the next daily stand-up.
Which BEST explains how this approach manages risk?
- A. It is a poor approach because this risk is outside the project's control so it is NOT relevant to the Marketing Team.
- B. It is a good approach because discussions in the daily stand-up are a way to actively manage risk.
- C. It is a good approach because the business analyst is responsible for capturing the wider customer view.
- D. It is a poor approach because the team manager should carry out actions related to risks that may impact delivery.
Answer: B
Explanation:
The daily stand-up is an opportunity for the team to discuss ongoing issues, including risks. By having the business analyst investigate the potential conflict with the local schools' fundraiser and report back, the team can address this risk proactively and make informed decisions on how to mitigate it, thus managing risk effectively.

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 should work full time on the project.
- B. It tailors the theme well because the customer representative provides specialist information to the teams.
- C. It tailors the theme poorly because each delivery team should have dedicated resources and a stable team.
- D. It tailors the theme poorly because a customer subject matter expert should provide expert knowledge on health.
Answer: B

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 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. Identify the effect of delaying the delivery of a web page in a daily stand-up.
- B. Carry out a safe-to-fail experiment to identify a better way of working.
- C. Refer to a cumulative flow diagram to identify the status of the remaining work.
- D. Visualize the status of the work using a 'ticket' board with 'swim lanes'.
Answer: D
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.
