    PMP · Question 02 · Task 13: Determine appropriate project methodology/methods and practices

    A project manager is assigned to lead a new software development project for a financial services company. The client has clearly defined requirements that are unlikely to change due to regulatory constraints, but wants incremental delivery every six weeks to show progress to stakeholders and gather early feedback on user interface elements. The development team is experienced with both predictive and agile methodologies. Which development approach is MOST appropriate?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Pure Waterfall - The requirements are stable and regulatory constraints require detailed upfront planning

    B.

    Pure Agile - The client wants incremental delivery and feedback on user interface elements

    C.

    Hybrid - Predictive planning for stable requirements with iterative delivery for stakeholder feedback

    D.

    Iterative - Multiple development cycles allow for continuous refinement of all project aspects

    How to approach this question

    Analyze the project characteristics: stable requirements (favors predictive) + incremental delivery needs (favors agile) = hybrid approach.

    Full Answer

    C.Hybrid - Predictive planning for stable requirements with iterative delivery for stakeholder feedback✓ Correct
    C
    Hybrid methodologies combine the best of predictive and agile approaches. Stable requirements and regulatory constraints benefit from upfront planning, while incremental delivery satisfies stakeholder engagement needs.

    Common mistakes

    Choosing pure methodologies when the project has characteristics that benefit from both predictive and agile approaches.
