5. Create WBS Process

   Inputs	Tools & Techniques	Outputs
   Project Scope Statement	Decomposition	WBS
   Requirements documentation		WBS dictionary
   Organizational process assets		Scope baseline
   		Project document updates

6. Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is an important part of the exam. It is a graphical representation of the hierarchy of the project. The WBS template can be reused across projects. WBS forces the project team to think through all the levels of the project. If a task is not in the WBS, then it is not part of the project.
7. 8/80 rule for WBS - No task should be less than 8 hours or more than 80 hours.
8. WBS dictionary explains all the WBS components. Also WBS is input to most of the planning processes. Specifically WBS is input to the following processes -
   • Cost Estimating
   • Cost Budgeting
   • Scope control
   • Activity Definition
   • Plan Purchases and Acquisitions
9. The Validate Scope is the process in which the project customer formally accepts the project deliverables. Scope Validation happens at the end of each phase. During the Validate Scope process customer gives feedback on work performed. While Validate Scope process focuses on customer acceptance, Perform Quality Control process focuses on correctness of work.
10. The table below gives inputs, Tools & Techniques, and Outputs of the Validate Scope process.

Methods of selecting the optimal projects - PMP - ادارة المشاريع

Methods of selecting the optimal projects

1. Constrained Optimization Project selection methods are used for large projects. These are techniques based on mathematical models. The Constrained Optimization techniques are -
   • Linear Programming
   • Non-Linear Programming
   • Integer Algorithm
   • Dynamic Programming
   • Multi-objective Programming
2. Expected monetary value of a project (or expected value) is equal to probability impact. So if probability of a project's success is 20% and revenue earned if successful is $100000, then the net value of the project will be $20,000. A project with higher net value should be selected when performing project selection.

project selection Measurement - PMP - ادارة المشاريع

project selection Measurement

1. Benefits Measurement project selection methods involve comparing the values of one project against another. There are the following type of Benefit Measurement project selection techniques -
• Murder Boards - This involves a committee asking tough questions from each project
• Scoring Models - Different projects are given scores based on certain defined criteria. Project with higher score is selected.
• Benefits Cost Ratio - This technique involves computing benefits to cost ratio (BCR) for a project. Project with higher BCR is selected.
• Payback period - This technique involves considering how long it takes back to "pay back" the cost of the project. Inflation or interest earned in not considered in this technique. A project with lower pay back period is better.
• Discounted Cash Flow - This technique takes into account the interest earned on the money. The Future Value (FV) of projects is compared.
  FV=PV(1+i)n
  PV is the present value of the project. A project with higher present value is better.
• Internal Rate of Return (IRR) - A project that has higher IRR is better, as it is giving higher return on money.
