Exam PMP topic 1 question 113 discussion

The project team is experienced & strict deadline -> Dont really need a detailed

The other information provided aside "QUICKLY" are distractors. The intent is to deliver quickly, if you go too detailed as D suggested, then very unlikely you're delivering QUICKLY. With C, you will deliver quickly maybe not evrything but many MVPs

D is the answer

D The problem is with the word delivery. Does this mean development or roll-out? I saw "delivery of a solution" as a the solution is there and it is roll-out where predictive would provide for a set plan to follow. If you see delivery as development then agile incremental and thus C.

Why not D?

Why shouldn't be D? Any risk with C? What if during the implementation it turns out that detail requirement/expectation are much complex than that initially assessed? "Supporting/Cooperating" doesn't mean all parties agreed to work with adaptive approach and doesn't ensure the stakeholders and client would give up their points for the shake of meeting deadline.

C. Have a high-level plan for incremental deliveries and get the customer's feedback as early as possible

D one time delivery is key word here to go with predictive

D. Customer is cooperating. So it is assumed that they will get feedback in a timely manner. Team is experienced and all are in place. All they need is a meticulous plan with all milestones, deliverables, schedules and just adhere to the plan. So best answer is D.

Quick delivery means need to use incremental method. Incremental method ensure you to at least delivery value to customer at first, so C

C. Have a high-level plan for incremental deliveries and get the customer's feedback as early as possible

Mmmmhhh.. How can you "ensure on-time delivery of the solution" if you have no schedule, planning etc etc? A proper planning is the first thing to do in order to be sure of the delivery timing. To use an Agile approach? Why? I don't read about any uncertainty about the scope so we can use the predictive approach...

C. Have a high-level plan for incremental deliveries and get the customer's feedback as early as possible. By adopting an incremental delivery approach and seeking customer feedback early in the process, the project manager can obtain valuable input to guide the development and ensure alignment with the customer's requirements. This iterative approach enables early detection and resolution of any misunderstandings, potential issues, or changes in priorities, reducing the risk of rework or delays later in the project. This strategy capitalizes on the experienced project team, stakeholder support, and customer cooperation. It allows the project manager to leverage their expertise and foster collaboration between the project team and the customer throughout the development process, ensuring that the solution meets the customer's needs and expectations while maintaining a focus on timely delivery.

C is most appropriate as the nature of these projects

Quick delivery = incremental way of delivery.. correct answer is B

C- Customer feedback in the early stage is better. So over D, I'm choosing C
