Questions 1–10 of 10

1. What is identified as playing a vital role in the failure of many IT projects?
Question 1A. The choice of programming languageB. The implementation approach, when one approach such as POC is interchanged with anotherC. The number of developers on the teamD. The colour of the user interfaceE. The location of the data centre
2. Which sequence of implementation approaches is listed?
Question 2A. POC, Prototype, Pilot, MVP, SIT, UAT and ProductionB. Design, Build, Test and RetireC. Landing, Staging and TransformationD. Conceptual, Logical and PhysicalE. Extract, Transform and Load
3. What common mistake leads to project failure after a successful POC?
Question 3A. Repeating the POC with a different teamB. Abandoning the project despite successC. Moving the same POC directly into ProductionD. Writing too much documentationE. Running the POC on production-grade hardware
4. Why does a POC that succeeds with limited infrastructure usually fail in Production?
Question 4A. Because production users are less skilledB. Because the POC code is always deletedC. Because regulators reject POC-based systemsD. Because a small-scale implementation on limited infrastructure and software is bound to fail at production scaleE. Because production environments do not support new ideas
5. What typically pushes implementers into moving a POC straight to Production?
Question 5A. Excess budgetB. A shortage of ideasC. Regulatory requirementsD. The absence of business usersE. Business pressure to achieve tight timelines
6. What is the stated chance that a POC moved directly into Production will fail?
Question 6A. 99%B. 50%C. 10%D. 1%E. 0%
7. How should infrastructure and software be planned for any of these implementation approaches?
Question 7A. Based on the smallest possible budgetB. Based on whether the solution plans to be in ProductionC. Based on what the sales team recommendsD. Based on the previous project's leftoversE. Based on the number of developers available
8. Does the warning about moving a POC into Production also apply to Prototype, Pilot and MVP environments?
Question 8A. No, only POCs are affectedB. No, Prototypes are always production-readyC. Yes, the same is true for Prototype, Pilot and MVP environmentsD. No, MVPs are exempt because they use real dataE. No, Pilots are built in Production by default
9. Which of the following is NOT one of the implementation approaches named alongside POC?
Question 9A. PrototypeB. PilotC. MVPD. SCDE. UAT
10. What is said to be true of each implementation approach such as POC, Prototype, Pilot and MVP?
Question 10A. They all use identical infrastructureB. They can be used interchangeably without consequenceC. They are all built by the sales teamD. They all require production-grade licencesE. Each has its own implementation strategy
