ASSESSMENT TASKS
There are two tasks to complete for this unit of competence:
Task 1 – Written responses
This activity has been designed to assess your knowledge and understanding of managing project
integration within projects.
This task consists of questionnaires which reflect the knowledge of project management (PMBOK). The
responses should include the following:
 Must be relevant to your project as stated in BSBPMG511 Manage Project Scope, unless otherwise
stated. Responses should link to the theoretical aspects of project integration management followed
by relevant experience / exposure of your nominated project you recently or are currently working on
to progress both your studies and your projects simultaneously. Your response to the questionnaires
must relate to the same project topic chosen for BSBPMG511 Manage Project Scope subject unit.
 However, if you have started with this subject topic as an initial attempt of this course, you must
negotiate and discuss with your Assessor to consider a project that you recently or are currently
working on or a project that you have worked in the past.
 If workplace project exposure does not apply to you, you must negotiate with your assessor to use a
scenario/case study examples that you will find on e-learning. However, case study examples are a
suitable substitute where workplace examples cannot be provided. Case studies are available on e-
learning. Theory answers without reference to your experience will not be assessed as satisfactory
 Demonstrate that you can or have applied what you have learnt to your project, regardless
of whether you have undertaken all the performance requirements in your workplace
Task 2 – Portfolio of Evidence, Project Report and Presentation
The portfolio of evidence, project report and presentation comprise the assessment of the application of
your project integration knowledge. You will need to demonstrate your information and communication
management skills applied to a project which is based on the project you have chosen for BSBPMG511
Manage Project Scope subject unit. It should state relevant experience / exposure of your nominated
project you recently or are currently working on to progress both your studies and your projects
simultaneously.
If you have started with this subject topic as an initial attempt of completing this course, you must
negotiate and discuss with your Assessor to consider a project that you recently or are currently working
on or a project that you have worked in the past.
If workplace project exposure does not apply to you, you must negotiate with your assessor to use a
scenario/case study examples that you will find on e-learning. However, case study examples are a
suitable substitute where workplace examples cannot be provided. Case studies are available on e-
learning.
To such a degree you must negotiate with your assessor to use a scenario/case study examples that you
will find on e-learning.
Your nominated project must be agreed between you and your Assessor so that its methodology, tools and
techniques accommodate to the performance requirements of each Unit of Competency prior to start of work
on the unit.

Task 2 consists of multiple activities that are required to be completed. You must ensure to complete all
activities to achieve integration management competency. Completion of all these activities can assist you to
gain the competency level that are required to perform the duties of project reporting and final project
presentation executed by a project manager.
In that manner, project reports which includes project closure report and final project report and also the
presentation of the project must be attempted. The closure report ensures the documentation all of the tasks
needed to complete your project including the objectives have been met and hand over the deliverables to
your Stakeholders. This activity must be completed by a Project Manager to gain agreement from their
Sponsor and that the project is ready for closure. Once approved, the Project Manager can proceed with the
movements desired to close the project promptly.
On other hand, the final project report demonstrates your comprehensive knowledge on how you document
the overall outcome of the project fostering appropriate integration of all the 7 units/knowledge areas of
project Management you have demonstrated through this course. It aims to create the roadmap for the
Sponsors or the project initiator to consider business long term providing opportunities to build new goals
and expand ideas. The foundation for quality, value, traceability, and history for the entire project
documentation should be considered. It must be noted that reports communicate information that are
compiled as a result of research and analysis of data and of issues. It focuses on transmitting information
with a clear purpose, to a specific audience.
Participating the presentation of your nominated project is a must, as it can clearly demonstrate one’s
capability of being exposed to the role of a Project Manager through a realistic staging in which you would
deliver your nominated project. Project Managers are expected to have explicit industry knowledge, strong
communication skills, and top-notch quantitative abilities to deliver an effective presentation. The purpose to
deliver this presentation should foster an impression of your overall findings, facts and data and the
execution of integrating all core knowledge areas. You aim to deliver the message to the audience declaring
the inclusive outcome of your project, which could be the success of the project with the intention to expand
business, or failure of the project with evaluation reports and recommended approached for improvements
or could be to present a full prototype completed project plan and execution strategies seeking approval for
initiative for start-up.
To support this activity, you would imply your conclusions by looking for innovative approaches to dispense
to your nominated project to ensure path to success. Without taking part in the presentation, will be deemed
as incomplete task resulting “Not Competent”. Also, you must score the pass mark of the Presentation by
itself to be considered “Competent” for this subject
Your project must comprise:
 a comprehensive, detailed and integrated project management plan
 a formal communication plans
 a devoted and project-based budget
 formal and planned involvement with a wide range of stakeholders
 a documented risk, issues and change-management methodology
 a quality plan with assurance and control processes
 a project team-based environment.
