Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) — Question 169

A project manager is responsible for delivering new software for their company. Based on previous experiences, the project manager decides to use the dynamic systems development method (DSDM). The project manager will use this method to prioritize the scope to meet project constraints.

Which elements are included in the DSDM framework?

Answer options

• A. Cost, requirements, schedule, and outputs
• B. Schedule, risk, integration, and features
• C. Cost, time, quality, and functionality
• D. Time, integration, cost, and deliverables

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The DSDM framework focuses on key aspects such as cost, time, quality, and functionality to ensure successful project delivery. Option A misrepresents the framework's elements, while B introduces irrelevant aspects like risk and integration that are not core to DSDM. Option D similarly diverges from the primary focus areas of DSDM.
