ITPEC IP October 2019 Question 53
Activities in project management include project cost management, project scope management, project time management, and project integration management. Which of the following is an item that is created in project integration management?
Explanation
Planning document for executing, monitoring and controlling the entire project — integration management produces the project management plan that ties the other areas together.
Project integration management coordinates all the knowledge areas: it develops the project charter and the project management plan, directs the work, monitors and controls it, handles changes through integrated change control, and closes the project. The project management plan combines the scope, schedule, cost and other subsidiary plans into one document for executing, monitoring and controlling the whole project.
Answer (d)
Why not others:
- •(a) — the development schedule is created in time (schedule) management
- •(b) — the list of deliverables is created in scope management, as the scope statement and WBS
- •(c) — the budget is created in cost management
Key rule: Each knowledge area produces its own plan; integration management combines them into the project management plan and controls changes across them.
