Exam CBAP topic 1 question 334 discussion

The Answer B. Babok pg 345.

A corrective action involves taking steps to bring project performance back in line with the planned schedule, budget, or scope. In this scenario, having project team members work overtime to align the actual schedule with the planned schedule is a corrective action aimed at addressing the schedule variance indicated by the SPI of 0.87.

The described action, where three project team members worked overtime to align the actual schedule with the planned schedule, is an example of a Corrective action. The team took corrective measures to address the deviation from the planned schedule, as indicated by the Schedule Performance Index (SPI) of .87. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Corrective.

C. Pg 50. Corrective: establishes ways to reduce the negative impact of an event.

B. The question says w project members worked overtime to ensure that the schedule WOULD align... regardless of outcome

Answer C - Corrective There is a SPI which should be corrected to minimize the impact

They have taken the corrective action to reduce the negative impact

SPI less than one shows that the project is running behind schedule. Corrective should be the answer since its a corrective measure to reduce the negative impact

C= Corrective as per page 49 Corrective: establishes ways to reduce the negative impact of an event.

A risk has already occurred and now they corrected it. C is the right answer.

Ans B 3.5.4.4 • Preventive: reduces the probability of an event with a negative impact. • Corrective: establishes ways to reduce the negative impact of an event. • Improvement: establishes ways to increase the probability or impact of events with a positive impact.

Ans is B. Babok V-3 3.5.4.4 Identify Business Analysis Performance Improvements - Recommend Actions for Improvement - Once the analysis of performance results is complete, the business analyst engages the appropriate stakeholders to identify the following actions: • Preventive: reduces the probability of an event with a negative impact. • Corrective: establishes ways to reduce the negative impact of an event. • Improvement: establishes ways to increase the probability or impact of events with a positive impact. These actions are likely to result in changes to the business analysis approach, repeatable processes, and tools. 3.5.8 Outputs • Business Analysis Performance Assessment: includes a comparison of planned versus actual performance, identifying the root cause of variances from the expected performance, proposed approaches to address issues, and other findings to help understand the performance of business analysis processes.
