Question 6. 6. (TCO C) You are the project manager for a large health information technology project. You are confronted with an important decision on your project: How much scenario testing is appropriate for this project? Employ decision tree analysis to provide senior management with the best course of action for this decision.
For this decision, you have three possible choices: no scenario testing of the design, moderate scenario testing of the design, or full scenario testing of the design. No scenario testing will incur no additional costs due to testing and has a 40% percent chance of a successful implementation. If it is unsuccessful, rework costs are likely to be $30 million.
Moderate scenario testing will cost $5 million and has a 50% percent chance of success. If it is unsuccessful, rework costs are likely to be $30 million. Full scenario testing will cost $10 million and has a 60% chance of success. If it is unsuccessful, rework costs are likely to be $30 million. Which solution is appropriate for this project? (Points : 40)
