PgMP Program Management

Category - Domain 3

Which of the following processes should be performed before all the rest?
  1. Communication Planning
  2. Risk Management Planning and Analysis
  3. Quality Planning
  4. Scope Definition
Explanation
Answer - D - Of these processes Scope Definition should be performed first.

Key Takeaway: Scoping a program means to provide documentation to figure out what is and is not included in the program, meaning, to draw boundaries around the program. Defining the program scope brings together the program charter, preliminary scope statement, and the benefits realization plan. It literally defines what the scope of the program is and will be throughout the life of the program. Without defining the scope of a program, the rest of the standard program processes become moot.
