ITPEC FE Morning October 2021 Question 51

Organizing the project members to achieve the planned result within budget and schedule — the project manager is accountable for delivering the objectives under their constraints.

A project manager plans the project (scope, schedule, cost, quality), organizes and assigns the team, monitors progress against the plan, controls deviations and risks, and communicates with stakeholders. The role directs the work rather than doing the technical tasks.

Answer (c)

Why not others:

• •(a) — coding and debugging are the programmers' work.
• •(b) — deliverables are evaluated by reviewers, testers or QA and, at acceptance, by the customer; the project manager plans and oversees quality but is not the evaluator.
• •(d) — user requirements come from the users or customer; the project manager organizes gathering them but does not supply them.

Key rule: A project manager plans, organizes and controls people, time and money to reach the objective; the technical work, the quality evaluation and the requirements belong to other roles.
