You are the project manager for the NQQ Project for your organization. You and the project team
are creating the activity list for the NQQ Project. You have instructed the project team members
that they should include an activity identifier and a scope of work description for each activity in the
activity list. Why is this information needed?

A.
To track the work to the project requirements

B.
To maintain profit and loss statements for the project

C.
To help the project team understand what work is required to be completed

D.
To communicate the work to be completed to the project stakeholders

Explanation:
The primary reason for including the activity identifier and the scope of work description for each
activity is to ensure the project team understands what work is required to be completed.
Answer option B is incorrect. Profit and loss statements are not required for all projects and they
are linked to actual performance against a project baseline.
Answer option D is incorrect. Communicating to the stakeholders is always a good idea, but
stakeholders would not usually need to know the activity details. Their focus is on project benefits
and deliverables.
Answer option A is incorrect. A requirements traceability matrix is the tool to link requirements to
project deliverables.
