Question

Work to be performed can come from the work package level of the work breakdown structure as well as other sources. Which of these is NOT a source of authorized work to be performed?
a. Scope creep
b. Defect repairs
c. Preventive actions
d. Corrective actions

Answer 1

A project is meant to achieve clearly defined goals within present constraints

The correct option for the source of work in a project which is NOT a source of authorized work to be performed is option (a)

a. Scope creep

The reason for the selecting the above option is as follows;

In project management, alongside work planned in a work package, authorized work to be performed can come from;

• The repairing of defects found in completed work and which is a requirement for the project to be approve

• Preventive actions, that are meant to mitigate factors that affect the project timeline and cost

• Corrective actions which include actions meant to rectify parts of the project that produce an error outcome

A scope creep, however, is generally is due to the inclusion of the end

users of the project at a time that is behind schedule, insufficient analysis of

the requirements, and project complexity underestimation. and consists of

changes made after a project has commenced

A scope creep therefore, changes the amount of work to be done which

therefore alters the project timeline, and due to project, budgetary, and

end user constraints, CANNOT be a source of authorized work to be

performed

The correct option for the source that is NOT a authorized work to be performed is option a. Scope creep
