ITPEC IP October 2018 Question 53

Roles and responsibilities must be clarified before people can be assigned appropriately. The project manager can then match each role's required authority, knowledge, skills, and workload with suitable team members and ensure that necessary responsibilities have owners.

Answer (d)

Why not others:
- a cost estimation method determines budget figures, not individual suitability
- a reporting method defines communication of progress
- deliverable acceptance standards define quality or completion criteria

Key rule: First define the work and accountability required; then select and assign people whose capabilities fit those roles.
