    Scenario
    Additional Information
    Extract from the Communication Management Strategy.
    The project information in the table below is true, but it may not be recorded under the correct heading or be in the correct document.

    Using the Project Scenario, select the appropriate response to each of the following 5 questions which have been raised by the Project Board.
    The project is now at the end of the initiation stage. Having decided that the Calendar project is a relatively simple project, the Project Manager combined the Starting Up a Project process and the Initiating a Project process. No Project Brief has been produced. Instead the Project Manager used the project mandate to produce a simple Project Initiation Documentation (PlO). The PlO includes the Business Case, a product checklist and several Product Descriptions, Including the Project Product Description. Short sections are also included for each of the strategies and the controls to be applied. The Project Manager has elected to use the Daily Log to record all risks, issues, lessons and quality - results.
    After the initiation stage there will be two further stages during which a small number of Work Packages will be authorized. While these are being managed, the Project Manager will hold regular checkpoints, which will support the production of weekly Highlight Reports to the Project Board.
    There is no mention of any Stage Plans, yet there are two further stages proposed. How will this be resolved?
