Pass PK0-005 Exam Guide

A project is defined by its temporary nature, having both a specific start and end date. This aligns with CompTIA Project+ and general project management definitions, which emphasize a project’s unique and finite duration.

If a project manager continues to receive project-related work after the project has been released into production, it suggests that the project closure phase was not completed properly. The project closure phase involves several activities, including ensuring that all project deliverables are accepted, documenting the lessons learned, releasing project resources, and formally closing the project. If these activities are not completed, the project can remain ‘open’ in a sense, leading to continued work and inquiries.

For detailed information, please refer to the CompTIA Project+ Study Guide and other official CompTIA resources. Specific references to the closure phase can be found in the CompTIA Project+ PK0-005 Cert Guide1 and the CompTIA Project+ Certification Exam Objectives2.

Obtaining approval for changes to software is crucial to ensure that the changes do not negatively impact other functionalities of the software. Approval processes typically involve a review that assesses the potential impacts of the change, which helps in mitigating risks associated with the change.

The total amount that should be budgeted for the task is calculated by adding the expected value of the risk to the original estimate. The expected value of the risk is the product of the probability and the impact of the risk. In this case, the expected value of the risk is 0.2 x (5 days and $1,000) = 1 day and $200. Therefore, the total amount that should be budgeted for the task is 9 days and $3,000 + 1 day and $200 = 10 days and $3,2001.
