Laura is the project manager for her organization and management has requested her to create a
report on her project’s performance. Laura needs to analyze her current project performance and
then compare it against what, in order to create a performance report?
A.
Cost variances and Cost Performance Index
B.
Scope baseline
C.
Performance measurement baseline
D.
Schedule variances, planned value, and the Schedule Performance Index
Explanation:
The performance measurement baseline, which can be comprised of cost, scope, and schedule, is
the foundation for creating a performance report.
Answer option B is incorrect. The scope baseline will only reflect the performance of the scope,
whereas performance reports typically need scope, time, and cost as its foundation.
Answer option A is incorrect. Cost variances and the cost performance index are cost values that
must be considered along with the scope performance and schedule performance.
Answer option D is incorrect. Only reporting performance on the schedule is not enough for a
performance report. Laura should also report on scope and cost at a minimum.
