Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) — Question 224

A new project was approved and the project manager is discussing the most suitable delivery approach with the project sponsor. Which three of the following are characteristics of a traditional project delivered using a linear delivery approach? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Collocated project teams
• B. Use of established templates
• C. Many expected simple scope change requests
• D. Few expected simple scope change requests
• E. Routine and repetitive activities

Correct answer: B, D, E

Explanation

The correct answers, B, D, and E, reflect the nature of traditional projects, which often rely on established templates, expect few changes to the scope, and involve routine activities. In contrast, option A, while it may occur in traditional projects, is not a defining characteristic, and option C contradicts the expectations of a traditional linear approach where changes are minimal.
