• Question 21:

  Which is true about planning in OUM?

  A. The project workplan must be developed from the full OUM work breakdown schedule.

  B. The project workplan should be scaled up, rather than tailored down, to the level of discipline appropriate be the identified risks and requirements.

  C. The project workplan should be scaled down, rather than tailored up, to the level of discipline appropriate to the identified risks and requirements.

  D. The project workplan should be rigorously conformed to an existing set of work products.

  Correct Answer: B

  In OUM, this principle is extended to refer to the execution of the method processes themselves. Project managers and practitioners are encouraged to scale OUM to be fit-for- purpose for a given situation. It is rarely appropriate to execute every activity within OUM. OUM provides guidance for determining the core set of activities to be executed, the level of detail targeted in those activities and their associated tasks, and the frequency and type of end user deliverables. The project workplan should be developed from this core. The plan should then be scaled up, rather than tailored down, to the level of discipline appropriate to the identified risks and requirements.

  Note: *To develop our Project Workplan, we have several options. We can employ a top-down approach and start with all of OUM and tailor it down. We can employ a bottom-up approach and start with the Core Workflow and build up from there. The best approach is probably to start with the workplan that most closely matches our engagement and tailor up and down. That is, immediately tailor down to a pre-tailored Workplan and continue to tailor from there based on the requirements of the engagement, while simultaneously keeping in mind the Core Workflow and building up from there.

  *tailoring of the actual OUM Project Workplan for your project for activities and tasks (tailoring steps 2.0 through 5.2) including tips for applying a bottom-up as well as a top-down technique for tailoring the Project Workplan. For our example, we are starting with the OUM Project Workplan that is located in the Method Resources section of the Key Components of most view pages. In OUM 5.6, a new Project Workplan template was introduced with pre-tailoring capability for most Implement views.

• Question 22:

  Which two statement are true about the Change Control Board (CCB)?

  A. It meets dailyduringProject Execution and Control.

  B. It is an internal project organization that is responsible for reviewing and resolving change requests.

  C. It is a person, group, or business that has a shared interest in a particular setof activities

  D. It escalates changes affecting scope to the steering committee.

  Correct Answer: BD

  B:CCB is a review committee that discusses and approves requests for changes to On Demand customer system configurations. The change requests are fulfilled in the following ways:

  A work guideline is generated by engineering for operations to use and implement.

  The changes are included in Oracle Certified Configurations.

  D:A Steering Committee is a group of high-level stakeholders who are responsible for providing guidance on overall strategic direction. They do not take the place of a Sponsor, but help to spread the strategic input and buy-in to a larger portion of the organization. The Steering Committee is usually made up of organizational peers and is a combination of direct clients and indirect stakeholders. Some members on the Steering Committee may also sit on the Change Control Board.

  C. Issue Review Board

  D. Project Team

  E. Testing Committee

  Correct Answer: ABD

  A:Project managers use OUM to make sure they and their stakeholders develop a shared understanding of what is needed, choose an appropriate architecture, and transfer the ownership of the end-product to the stakeholders.

  B:CCB(Change Control Board)is a review committee that discusses and approves requests for changes to On Demand customer system configurations. The change requests are fulfilled in the following ways:

  A work guideline is generated by engineering for operations to use and implement.

  The changes are included in Oracle Certified Configurations.

  D:Project teams to take advantage of this experience by leveraging these leading practices along with industry standards.

• Question 26:

  In OUM Manage, what is true about Organizational Change Management process?

  A. It is only a concern of a client.

  B. It feeds the risk management process and communication process and is only handled by third parties.

  C. It feeds the communication process and risk management process and should be considered when training end-users.

  D. It is handled by third parties.

  Correct Answer: C

  Note: *Organizational Change Management This process starts at the strategic level and then identifies challenges of the implementations in order to design the systems that allow lowering the risk. Identifying the change requirements from the beginning of the project would help organization to manage it effectively.

  *The Manage focus area is organized into 13 processesincluding theOrganizational Change Management process: The objective of the Organizational Change Management process is to be aware of the Client's Organizational Change Management Strategy and to effectively create a Change and Communication Plan that addresses this strategy. The goal is to create the change momentum needed to increase buy-in and reduce resistance - thus reducing productivity losses.

• Question 27:

  Which is a recommended starting point when building a project workplan?

  A. OUM Implement Core Workflow

  B. OUM Implement full work breakdown structure

  C. The OUM Inception Phase work breakdown structure

  D. The work products identified from the scope of work

  Correct Answer: A

  In OUM, this principle is extended to refer to the execution of the method processes themselves. Project managers and practitioners are encouraged to scale OUM to be fit-for- purpose for a given situation. It is rarely appropriate to execute every activity within OUM.

• Question 28:

  What is true about the Implementation Plan?

  A. It shows the detailed tasks for the duration of the project.

  B. It is not modified after the Project Execution and Control phase begins.

  C. It is a subset of the Project Management Plan.

  D. It focuses on the objectives, milestones, and number of iterations for the project

  E. It covers a single phase.

  Correct Answer: D

  In a project setting, the Implementation Plan is a high level plan that focuses on milestones, objectives, and the number of iterations. It is the plan that is typically developed at the start of an engagement identifying the project phases and milestones.

• Question 29:

  Select the three major activities in the Project Start Up phase.

  A. Develop Staff Plan and Budget

  B. Manage Project Quality

  C. Validate Scope, Stakeholders, and OCM Strategy

  D. Review Bid and Contract

  E. Establish Estimate

  F. Develop DetailProject Plan

  Correct Answer: ACD

  *The Project Start Up phase precedes the Inception phase. Project startup is where all of the projectplanning activities take place and where policies, procedures, and strategies are defined for each of theprocesses, which govern the conduct of the engagement.

  *In OUM Manage, one of the first activities that occur during the Project Startup phase involves the Project Manager and the client (Project Sponsor) jointly creating the Project Management Framework. This framework establishes the ground rules for the project and is the first step in communicating, establishing trust, and setting expectations.

  The key focus for the remainder of the Project Startup Phase is to evolve the Project Management Framework into a detailed Project Management Plan based on the agreed upon foundation. In prior versions of OUM Manage, the equivalent work product was named the "Terms of Reference". Literally, this was the work product referenced to sort out problems when future misunderstandings occurred.

  Incorrect: Not B Not F

• Question 30:

  Which statement is true about the Project Management Plan and the Project Workplan in OUM?

  A. They are the same document.

  B. A change to one may necessitate a change to the other.

  C. The Project Management Plan does not change after Project Startup, while the Project Workplan may change at anytime.

  D. The Project Workplan and Project Management plan have no Impact on one another.

  Correct Answer: B

  *OUM Manage provides the framework for consistently managing a project regardless of the project approach. The project manager must be familiar with the project approach being used, and must make the necessary adjustments in the Project Management Plan (as well as in the Project Workplan) to incorporate the concepts and activities that support the given approach.The same concepts apply to projects using offshore resources or third parties. *OUM Manage and Other Project Approaches OUM Manage can be used with any project approach. OUM Manage does not required any specific project approach. The project manager should adjust the Project Management Plan and Project Workplan in order to execute the project following the designated project approach.
