CAPM Change Control & Configuration 5

Question 1

A project manager is closing out a project phase. Which change control activity is MOST important before moving to the next phase?

Accepted Answer

Verifying that all approved changes have been implemented and baselines are updated

Answer

Before phase closure, the project manager must confirm all approved changes have been implemented and that all baselines reflect the current approved state.

Question 2

What happens to a change request that is rejected by the CCB?

Accepted Answer

It is documented in the change log with a rejected status and stored for future reference

Answer

Rejected change requests are documented in the change log with their disposition so the project maintains a complete audit trail of all change decisions.

Question 3

In CAPM terminology, which of the following is the CORRECT sequence for processing a change request?

Accepted Answer

Identify → Document → Evaluate → Decide → Implement → Update records

Answer

The correct sequence is to identify the need, document the request, evaluate the impact, get a decision, implement if approved, and then update all project records.

Question 4

A project team is using a configuration management system that tracks every version of each deliverable. What is the PRIMARY benefit of this practice?

Accepted Answer

It ensures that only the current approved version of each item is used

Answer

A configuration management system ensures team members always work from the current, approved version of deliverables, preventing errors from using outdated versions.

Question 5

Which of the following would NOT typically require a formal change request?

Accepted Answer

Correcting a typographical error in an internal meeting agenda

Answer

Minor administrative corrections like fixing a typo in an internal meeting agenda do not affect baselines or project deliverables and do not require formal change control.
