A project manager is evaluating delivery options to demonstrate value. The organization needs to see a return on investment as quickly as possible to fund future phases.<br/><br/>Which delivery approach is BEST suited for this need?

Answer options:

Predictive (Waterfall) with a single final release

Big Bang delivery

Incremental delivery

Parallel delivery of all components

How to approach this question

Match the need (Speed of Value) to the Approach. Incremental = Early Value.

Full Answer

C.Incremental delivery✓ Correct

Incremental delivery provides usable deliverables at the end of each iteration/increment. This allows the organization to realize value (and potentially revenue) earlier than a predictive/big-bang approach which delivers everything at the end.

Common mistakes

Confusing 'Iterative' (refining) with 'Incremental' (delivering pieces). Incremental is key for early value.
