APMG-International Agile Project Management (AgilePM) Practitioner - AgilePM-Practitioner

Using the project timeline given in the Project Scenario, answer the following question about application of Timeboxing on the Hoy Hall project.
Lines 1 to 5 in the table below consist of an assertion statement and a reason statement. For each line identify the appropriate option, from options A to E, that applies.
Each option can be used once, more than once or not at all.

Assertion :
1. All internal works to be assigned to Timber Tigers throughout the project should be consolidated into one Structured Timebox.
BECAUSE
The Investigation step within each Structured Timebox requires everyone working within the team to jointly agree how the requirements of the Timebox will be met.
2. Acceptance criteria for the front rooms to be developed in Timebox A should be described in detail and agreed during the Timebox Kick-Off BECAUSE The aim of the Investigation step within each Timebox is to complete as much of the development work as possible.
3. It is appropriate that both the Evolutionary Development phase and Deployment phase are shown in the first Project Increment.
BECAUSE
Each Timebox should comprise an Evolutionary Development phase and
Deployment phase.
4. It is appropriate that the outputs of Timebox C are scheduled for deployment at the end of the first Project Increment.
BECAUSE
A typical Timebox Plan should provide a schedule of high-level activities for the imminent Project Increment.
5. It is appropriate that Earth Excavations create a detailed plan of activities they will complete during Timebox C.
Reason
BECAUSE
The Solution Development Team is responsible for planning the detail of all the work of each Timebox.

During the Foundations phase for Project Increment 4, Sukra Aroon held a meeting with Hira, Mira Bachar, andWanida Anong, to ensure alignment and compliance with EPR company policies, local regulations, and international standards. The meeting also clarified how financial and investment decisions would be made for Project Increment 4, ensuring alignment with EPR business priorities, and how this information will be tracked, controlled and evidenced.
Wanida Anong, who works across multiple sites worldwide, attended the meeting in person but has limited availability throughout the Project Increment.

(During the meeting, Wanida Anong shared specific safety and hygiene standards associated with the water used for Hydrotherapy treatments. Water quality needs to be monitored to ensure it meets specific safety and hygiene standards.
Which of the following approaches balances agility with compliance?)

• A. Deliver compliance-related features early in the Project Increment and ensure they are formally reviewed by the regulatory authority leaving the team more time for rework if required.
• B. Include regulatory acceptance criteria in the Definition of Done for all Product Backlog items, review and get acceptance of compliance at Sprint Reviews.
• C. Fully design the Hydrotherapy solution during the Foundations phase and validate it with the regulatory authority before development starts.
• D. Have Wanida Anong involved in all Product Backlog refinement, Sprint Planning, and Sprint Review activities that impact the design and operation of these treatments.

The change management team is creating the change analytics strategy for the change programme.
Below is an extract of recipients, measures and source data that have been proposed.
Answer the following question about the sources of conflict in change
situations.
Column 1 is a list of statements about sources of conflict in change situations.
Column 2 contains the names of the eight sources of conflict identified by Art Bell and Brett Hart. For each statement in Column 1, select from Column 2 the source of conflict to which it MOST relates. Each selection from Column 2 can be used once, more than once or not at all.

Which item is MOST likely to be considered as a pain point for a 'Sales team member' stakeholder?

• A. Increased effort will be needed initially to learn the new supporting business processes.
• B. Rebranding gives the company a modern look that has been missing historically.
• C. This gives an opportunity for all staff to be involved and engaged in shaping the change.
• D. Comprehensive training is required to broaden skills, that are recognized as best practice.

What action should the Project Manager take regarding the remaining windows?

• A. Insist that all available resources within the Solution Development Team are redirected to this work over the remaining two days.
• B. Decompose the individual elements of work to be completed on the windows and reprioritise them to meet the Minimum Usable Subset.
• C. All requirements that have not been met are automatically carried over to the next increment.
• D. Extend the time allocated to Timebox C, to allow time to complete these.
