    PMP · Question 10 · Task 13: Determine appropriate project methodology/methods and practices

    A construction company is building a hospital with strict regulatory requirements, detailed architectural plans, and a fixed completion date for the opening. However, the medical equipment selection and interior design can evolve based on staff feedback during construction. Which project approach would be MOST appropriate for this scenario?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Predictive approach - The regulatory requirements and fixed date require traditional planning

    B.

    Agile approach - The evolving requirements for equipment and design need iterative delivery

    C.

    Hybrid approach - Predictive for construction with agile elements for equipment/design decisions

    D.

    Iterative approach - Multiple cycles allow for continuous refinement of all aspects

    How to approach this question

    Identify which project elements require predictive approaches (fixed, regulated) versus which elements benefit from adaptive approaches (evolving, feedback-driven), then select the methodology that accommodates both.

    Full Answer

    C.Hybrid approach - Predictive for construction with agile elements for equipment/design decisions✓ Correct
    C
    Hybrid methodologies allow different project components to use the most appropriate approach. Fixed elements use predictive planning while evolving elements use adaptive approaches.

    Common mistakes

    Students often choose pure predictive (A) focusing on construction constraints, or pure agile (B) focusing on evolving requirements, missing the need to accommodate both simultaneously.
