B (not C): Example:
Our next step is to eliminate activities/tasks that are not needed. Consider the following:
1. Don’t eliminate anything in the Core Workflow without carefully consideration.
2. Review any available supplemental guidance.
3. Consider removing activities/tasks NOT included in the Estimate and/or Proposal.
4. Determine if it’s possible to eliminate all if not most of some processes. For example,
consider removing the following processes and corresponding activities and/or tasks, if your project
does not include ANY requirements for them:
• Performance Management
• Organizational Change Management
• Training• Data Acquisition and Conversion
D: Finally, you should consider whether it is advisable or appropriate to combine tasks or to execute
your project using OUM’s activities – which are groupings of tasks.
