This question's explanation and your answers so far.
問 42
Incorrectア
“The roles and responsibilities of the project team” belongs to the area of resource (human resource) management, which handles staff assignment and the division of responsibility; it is not a description of scope, which defines the range of work.
- イ
正解 Project scope refers to the work scope itself, namely “what deliverables to produce and which tasks to carry out to produce them”. In scope management, this scope is clarified, and the work is broken down and managed with a WBS (Work Breakdown Structure). Therefore, choice イ, which states “the work that should be carried out in the project”, is the appropriate description of scope.
Incorrectウ
“The planned start date and planned end date of each task” represents the schedule, which belongs to the area of time management. Scope is the range of “which tasks to perform”, not “when to perform them”.
Incorrectエ
“The cost required to carry out the project” represents cost (budget), which belongs to the area of cost management. Scope is the range of work, not the estimation of cost itself.
- Project scope = what defines the work that should be carried out in the project (the range of deliverables and the work to produce them). The work is broken down and managed with a WBS.
- Distinguish the management areas in PMBOK: roles and responsibilities = resource, schedule = time, cost = cost. Scope is strictly “the range of work that should be done”.
