During stage 4, the business identifies a need for additional funding to extend LouisShopping advertising beyond project closure so that more businesses are attracted to Louistown. The project board must communicate the business need and resulting direction to the project team.
Which role should lead this business-related ongoing direction?

• A. Project assurance
• B. Senior user
• C. Project manager
• D. Project executive

At the start of stage 3, an approved request for change adds a promotional video to the stage. BuildyBrick has agreed to produce it, a product description has been prepared, and the project manager now needs to instruct the BuildyBrick team manager to begin the work.
During which 'controlling a stage' activity should this instruction be given?

• A. Evaluate work package status
• B. Take corrective action
• C. Capture issues and risks
• D. Authorize a work package

While preparing the project plan, the project manager and BuildyBrick's planning specialist use the product flow and data from previous projects to determine that the utilities and systems can be delivered in parallel as separate work packages.
Is this an appropriate application of the 'plans' practice, and why?

• A. Yes, because product dependencies determine sequence, and independent work packages may be planned to run in parallel
• B. No, because work delivered by the same supplier must be scheduled sequentially and should avoid running in parallel
• C. Yes, because data from previous projects should determine the schedule without reviewing the dependencies between the products
• D. No, because setting work-package tolerances determines the order in which products must be produced

BuildyBrick is demobilizing after delivering the shopping centre on time and within budget. Before the remaining supplier personnel leave, the project manager checks that the Council's operations and facilities teams are ready to receive, operate and maintain the completed centre.
Why is this an appropriate application of the 'confirm project acceptance' activity?

• A. Because the project manager should arrange a celebration before the contractor leaves the site
• B. Because the project manager should confirm that handover to the operational and maintenance environment is complete
• C. Because all project information should be archived before the completed project product is accepted
• D. Because the project manager should complete the end project performance assessment before any supplier demobilizes
