CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management) Practice Exam

What is the main purpose of the collect requirements process?

1. To define project roles and responsibilities

2. To generate a project budget

3. To define and document what is needed to meet project objectives

4. To outline the project's deliverables and milestones

The correct answer is: To define and document what is needed to meet project objectives

The main purpose of the collect requirements process is to define and document what is needed to meet project objectives. This involves gathering all necessary information from stakeholders, identifying their expectations and needs, and documenting these in a requirements document. Option A is incorrect because defining project roles and responsibilities is typically done in the planning phase, rather than during the requirements gathering process. Option B is incorrect because generating project budget is also usually done in the planning phase and is not the main purpose of the requirements process. Option D is incorrect because outlining deliverables and milestones is typically done after the requirements have been identified and documented.
