Additional Information
Extract from the Communication Management Strategy.
The project information in the table below is true, but it may not be recorded under the correct
heading or be in the correct document.

Using the Project Scenario, select the appropriate response to each of the following 5 questions
which have been raised by the Project Board.
The project is now at the end of the initiation stage. Having decided that the Calendar project is a
relatively simple project, the Project Manager combined the Starting Up a Project process and the
Initiating a Project process. No Project Brief has been produced. Instead the Project Manager
used the project mandate to produce a simple Project Initiation Documentation (PlO). The PlO
includes the Business Case, a product checklist and several Product Descriptions, Including the
Project Product Description. Short sections are also included for each of the strategies and the
controls to be applied. The Project Manager has elected to use the Daily Log to record all risks,
issues, lessons and quality – results.
After the initiation stage there will be two further stages during which a small number of Work
Packages will be authorized. While these are being managed, the Project Manager will hold
regular checkpoints, which will support the production of weekly Highlight Reports to the Project
Board.
No Benefits Review Plan has been developed. Where should the schedule of benefit reviews be
recorded?

A.
As deliverables of the project, all benefit reviews should be scheduled and documented in the
Project Plan during initiation.

B.
Small projects do not require a schedule of benefit reviews as only one review is required
towards the end of the project and this should be documented within the Business Case.

C.
Benefit reviews should be planned and recorded in the simple PID.
