Question #5

During the 'identify the programme' process, the SRO identified that the utility regulator may be considering a fair pricing policy to protect vulnerable customers. The introduction of this policy would have a significant impact on the benefits expected by UU. The programme manager included this information in the programme brief.
How well does this apply the 'deal with ambiguity' principle, and why?

B. It applies it poorly, because this risk is so significant that it should have been identified in the programme mandate by the sponsoring group

C. It applies it well, because UU needs to understand their risk appetite in the current business climate before they start the programme

D. It applies it well, because the sponsoring group needs to understand the possible impact of this risk when deciding whether to proceed

Question #7

The Smart Meter Programme is in Tranche 2 and the Customer Processes Project is delivering ahead of schedule. This means that fewer resources are required to complete the project. The Training Project, which was due to start in Tranche 3, has now become a higher priority and needs to be started early. The programme manager has recommended starting the Training Project now although Tranche 2 and Tranche 3 will then overlap.
Is this an appropriate application of the structure' theme, and why?

A. Yes, because tranches may overlap if the programme is making good progress and capability is available

B. Yes, because available resource capacity should be fully utilized throughout the programme

C. No, because tranches should be sequential to enable end-of-tranche reviews to take place before the next tranche is approved

D. No, because tranches should remain sequential if overlapping the tranches would increase the risks to programme delivery

Question #9

As a result of the Training Project in Tranche 3, a new onboarding process is being piloted.
