CBAP · Question #201

Which of the following is a flowchart that shows all the processes and the interfaces that interact with the project processes?

The correct answer is A. Process configuration. A process configuration is a flowchart that maps all project processes and the interfaces between them, giving stakeholders a visual overview of how processes connect.

Why each option

A process configuration is a flowchart that maps all project processes and the interfaces between them, giving stakeholders a visual overview of how processes connect.

AProcess configurationCorrect

A process configuration diagram functions as a flowchart that documents every process within a project scope along with the inputs, outputs, and interfaces that link those processes together. It provides a comprehensive visual model of how project activities interact, making it the standard tool for this purpose in business analysis and project management frameworks. This distinguishes it from simple task lists or other chart types that do not capture process interfaces.

BPareto chart

A Pareto chart is a bar graph used in quality management to rank defect causes by frequency, applying the 80/20 rule - it does not map process flows or interfaces.

CControl chart

A control chart is a statistical quality tool used to monitor process performance over time against control limits - it tracks data trends, not process relationships or interfaces.

DQuality baseline

A quality baseline documents the agreed-upon quality standards and metrics for a project - it is a reference document, not a flowchart of process interactions.

ERACI chart

A RACI chart assigns roles and responsibilities (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed) to project tasks - it maps people to activities, not processes to interfaces.
