Managing Projects and Portfolios with Microsoft PPM — Question 15

You are the Microsoft PPM administrator for a large company. The IT manager uses four business drivers for prioritization. The priority of all four drivers is set at
25 percent.
The IT manager adds an additional business driver that has a priority value set to 30 percent.
You need to create a new prioritization that includes the additional business driver.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Create a new calculated prioritization. Select the drivers to prioritize.
• B. Create a new manual prioritization. Select the correct department, and then select the drivers to prioritize.
• C. Create a new manual prioritization. Select the drivers to prioritize, enter the value for each driver, and then choose to normalize.
• D. Create a new manual prioritization. Select the drivers to prioritize, and then rank the drivers sequentially.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because creating a new manual prioritization allows you to specify the values for each driver and normalize them to ensure they add up to 100 percent. Option A is incorrect because a calculated prioritization does not allow for manual value entry. Option B does not address the need to input values for each driver, and option D fails to include normalization, which is essential for maintaining proper prioritization.
