問 38
Incorrectア
Calculating the progress rate from the quantity of completed deliverables and comparing it with the plan is an activity for managing how the schedule is progressing, which falls under project time management (progress management). It does measure a quantity, but that is a quantification of “progress,” not a quantitative analysis of “quality.”
Incorrectイ
Clarifying the skills required for the members who create the design documents is an activity of project human resource management, which deals with personnel capabilities and assignment. It is a qualitative staffing plan, not an activity that analyzes the quality of deliverables with numbers.
- ウ
正解 The correct answer is “ウ”. In project quality management, “quantitatively analyzing the quality of deliverables” means measuring quality with numbers so that it can be evaluated and improved. Choice “ウ” compares the actual number of defects (bugs) detected in testing against a target value set in advance, which is exactly an activity that analyzes quality using quantitative data such as a defect count. From the gap against the target value, the quality status can be judged objectively, and whether countermeasures are needed can be determined.
Incorrectエ
Estimating development costs by taking into account factors such as program scale and productivity is an activity of project cost management, which calculates costs. It deals with a monetary amount, namely cost, and does not constitute a quantitative analysis of quality.
- In project quality management, the “quantitative analysis of quality” means comparing quality data such as the number of defects against target or baseline values in order to evaluate quality objectively.
- Distinguishing the knowledge areas: progress rate = time management, personnel skills = human resource management, cost estimation = cost management, comparing actual versus target defect counts = quality management.
