This question's explanation and your answers so far.
問 46
Incorrectア
“Whether integration testing is being carried out comprehensively from various perspectives” is about detecting defects in the deliverable (software) and assuring the quality of the finished product, which is a check item of quality management. It does not look at how the schedule is progressing, so it does not belong to progress management.
Incorrectイ
“How much of a cost increase is anticipated going forward” checks the outlook for cost against the budget, which is a check item of cost management. It is a money perspective, not progress management that looks at the schedule's progress.
- ウ
正解 Progress management is the activity of tracking whether work is proceeding according to the planned schedule, and, when a delay occurs, assessing its impact and taking action. Option ウ, “how much impact a delay in the work has on the overall schedule”, looks at exactly how the delay of each task ripples through to the scheduled completion date (the overall schedule), which is itself a check item of progress management. In practice, tools such as a Gantt chart are used to compare the plan and actual results of each task and to grasp the delay and its impact on the whole. Therefore the correct answer is ウ.
Incorrectエ
“Whether a design review procedure for discovering design defects has been established” concerns the mechanism for building in and assuring the quality of the deliverable, which is a check item of quality management. It does not ask about how the work is progressing or its impact on the schedule, so it does not fall under progress management.
- Distinguishing the three aspects of project management: progress management = how the schedule is advancing and the impact of delays; quality management = ensuring the quality of the deliverable through testing and reviews; cost management = the outlook for cost against the budget.
- In progress management, tools such as a Gantt chart are used to compare the plan and actual results of each task, grasp the impact of delays on the overall schedule, and take countermeasures.
