A software development program will launch iterative versions of new software called Alpha over two years. Following that, a program will be released to the program team and developers to create new software called Beta. While the program manager prepares the program closure plan for Alpha, the program sponsor expresses concern about its support after program closure.
What should the program manager do as part of Alpha’s program closure plan?
An IT program manager is concerned that a program is not achieving its defined incremental benefits due to a lack of delivery by the business team. The IT team has several dependencies on the business team throughout the program. However, the business team does not report to the IT program manager, and only two business team resources with the appropriate skills are available to complete the required program tasks.
To address this issue, what should the IT program manager do next?
The project managers for component projects A and B schedule the same resource to perform tasks during the same timeframe, resulting in an over-allocation. The program manager reviews the program resource management plan, determines that project A can wait until the resource becomes available, and assigns the resource to project B.
This is an example of which of the following?
Two project managers in your program, Marcy and Mary, are not agreeing with the scheduling of project resources and they have asked for your help to determine the resolution. They are refusing to speak with each other and each is telling you that the other person is scheduling project resources for the project that are already scheduled to complete the work. In the communication model, what component represents the disagreement of these two project managers and their refusal to speak with each other about a resolution?
