Topic 1, Hoy Hall Hotel Refurbishment Project
Overview
Scenario:
Hoy Hall Hotel Refurbishment Project
(Note:
Hoy Hall, a historic, timber-framed building dating from the 17th century, was
originally the residence
of the Lords of the Manor of Hoytown. The building is registered as a Heritage
Building of Special Interest and is subject to restrictions in terms of
development. Used as a hotel for over a century, it has recently fallen into
disrepair, and for two years it has been completely unused, accelerating its
deterioration. The local community has formed the Action Group "Hoy for Hoy
Hall" to save the building, and wants to be closely involved in its future success.
After much discussion Hoy Hall has been purchased by Architecture Angels
(AA), a small company whose directors are experienced hoteliers. Five years
ago they decided to move into the property renovation business and have
recently restored two other similarly-endangered buildings for use as hotels.
Architecture Angels are keen to both support local businesses and to have local
people run their hotels, giving them a significant amount of autonomy to do this.
To maintain core consistency, the hotels use Architecture Angels' Head Office
services, such as IT operations, accounting, payroll, stocktaking, compliance,
human resources and property management. The Head Office is based 80 miles
from Hoy Hall.
Recently Architecture Angels commenced an Agile project to renovate Hoy Hall,
which has a large downstairs hall and reception area, and 20 potential
bedrooms upstairs. The roof requires extensive repairs and the electrical and
plumbing installations require complete replacement. The 40 acres of land
around the site are overgrown and need to be restored, and the driveway needs
re-laying.
In the hotel industry, the trend for direct customer bookings via the internet has
had a major impact on the growth of those hotels with this facility. Online
booking now accounts for around 80% of room bookings, with only 20% being
made via walk-in and telephone enquiries. Before Hoy Hall can open for
business, a reservation system must be fully operational.
Architecture Angels use contractors to manage such work and have good
relationships with two local companies: Timber Tigers (TT) who will handle the
internal works, and Earth Excavations (EE) who will handle the gardens.
A Project Manager, who has since left the company, started the Feasibility
phase. This phase has been continued by the Senior Management Team, which
consists of the Sales, Marketing, and Finance Directors and the Chief Executive.
This was scheduled to take a month and has almost been completed. A
Feasibility Assessment has been produced. An Outline Business Case has been
completed which assessed the project as being viable.
The Architecture Angels Senior Management Team will be responsible for
Steering the project.
The table below shows the appointments planned for the project team and is
subject to change.
Additional Information:
The project is approaching the end of Feasibility. The original Project Manager
was involved in drafting a Delivery Plan for the project but not in the outline
refurbishment options.
The Senior Management Team generated several options for the refurbishment.
All the options included a landscaping solution for the gardens and re-laying of the
driveway, as the solution will not be acceptable without these. However, the best
solution for the refurbishment is still under debate. The new Project Manager has
suggested that a Feasibility Prototype could consist of paper-based drawings for
each option. The "Hoy for Hoy Hall" Action Group thinks that a physically-built
representation is mandatory for a prototype and wants a small-scale model of the
recommendation for the building. The time available to produce this, however, is
limited.
Contracts for resources have not yet been signed and will be postponed until the
chosen outline solution has been agreed.

deterioration. The local community has formed the Action Group "Hoy for Hoy
Hall" to save the building, and wants to be closely involved in its future success.
After much discussion Hoy Hall has been purchased by Architecture Angels
(AA), a small company whose directors are experienced hoteliers. Five years
ago they decided to move into the property renovation business and have
recently restored two other similarly-endangered buildings for use as hotels.
Architecture Angels are keen to both support local businesses and to have local
people run their hotels, giving them a significant amount of autonomy to do this.
To maintain core consistency, the hotels use Architecture Angels' Head Office
services, such as IT operations, accounting, payroll, stocktaking, compliance,
human resources and property management. The Head Office is based 80 miles
from Hoy Hall.
Recently Architecture Angels commenced an Agile project to renovate Hoy Hall,
which has a large downstairs hall and reception area, and 20 potential
bedrooms upstairs. The roof requires extensive repairs and the electrical and
plumbing installations require complete replacement. The 40 acres of land
around the site are overgrown and need to be restored, and the driveway needs
re-laying.
In the hotel industry, the trend for direct customer bookings via the internet has
had a major impact on the growth of those hotels with this facility. Online
booking now accounts for around 80% of room bookings, with only 20% being
made via walk-in and telephone enquiries. Before Hoy Hall can open for
business, a reservation system must be fully operational.
Architecture Angels use contractors to manage such work and have good
relationships with two local companies: Timber Tigers (TT) who will handle the
internal works, and Earth Excavations (EE) who will handle the gardens.
A Project Manager, who has since left the company, started the Feasibility
phase. This phase has been continued by the Senior Management Team, which
consists of the Sales, Marketing, and Finance Directors and the Chief Executive.
This was scheduled to take a month and has almost been completed. A
Feasibility Assessment has been produced. An Outline Business Case has been
completed which assessed the project as being viable.
The Architecture Angels Senior Management Team will be responsible for
Steering the project.
The table below shows the appointments planned for the project team and is
subject to change.
Additional Information:
The project is approaching the end of Feasibility. The original Project Manager
was involved in drafting a Delivery Plan for the project but not in the outline
refurbishment options.
The Senior Management Team generated several options for the refurbishment.
All the options included a landscaping solution for the gardens and re-laying of the
driveway, as the solution will not be acceptable without these. However, the best
solution for the refurbishment is still under debate. The new Project Manager has
suggested that a Feasibility Prototype could consist of paper-based drawings for
each option. The "Hoy for Hoy Hall" Action Group thinks that a physically-built
representation is mandatory for a prototype and wants a small-scale model of the
recommendation for the building. The time available to produce this, however, is
limited.
Contracts for resources have not yet been signed and will be postponed until the

Using the Project Scenario answer the following question about the technical quality of the solution
to be delivered. An assessment of the maintenance requirement for the new reservation system was
made during Feasibility.
Column 1 describes a list of different types of hotel reservation systems considered. Column 2 lists
the three DSDM maintainability objectives. For each description in Column 1, select from Column 2
the maintainability objective it would support.
Each selection from Column 2 can be used once, more than once or not at all.
Column 1:
1. Off-the-shelf software with ready-to-use templates that will need to be customised to fully
meet Hoy Hall requirements, after deployment.
2. Developing a fully functioning in-house system, developed and hosted by Architecture
Angels IT Operations team.
3. All-in-one web-based reservation and accommodation management system built to Hoy Hall's
specification.
4. All bookings for Hoy Hall to be scheduled by one of the other two hotels within the group,
until a suitable system can be implemented at the site.
5. A spreadsheet is used to capture customer details manually. Data will then be exported into a fully
functional system at a later date.

1 correct answerFor each of the descriptions in Column 1, the maintainability objective from Column 2 that each
would support is as follows:
Off-the-shelf software with ready-to-use templates that will need to be customised to fully meet Hoy
Hall requirements, after deployment.
A . Maintainability is a required attribute of the initial delivered solution
Rationale: Customizing off-the-shelf software indicates a need for the solution to be maintainable
from the onset to allow for these adjustments.
Developing a fully functioning in-house system, developed and hosted by Architecture Angels IT
Operations team.
A . Maintainability is a required attribute of the initial delivered solution
Rationale: In-house developed systems need to be maintainable to facilitate future changes and
enhancements by the team that created them.
All-in-one web-based reservation and accommodation management system built to Hoy Hall's
specification.
A . Maintainability is a required attribute of the initial delivered solution
Rationale: A system built to specific requirements will require the ability to maintain and adjust the
system as needs evolve, making maintainability a key initial attribute.
All bookings for Hoy Hall to be scheduled by one of the other two hotels within the group, until a
suitable system can be implemented at the site.
C . Short-term, tactical solution
Rationale: This is clearly a temporary measure until a proper system is in place, indicative of a tactical
solution to address immediate needs.
A spreadsheet is used to capture customer details manually. Data will then be exported into a fully
functional system at a later date.
C . Short-term, tactical solution
Rationale: Using a spreadsheet is a stop-gap solution to manage information in the short term,
emphasizing the tactical nature rather than long-term maintainability.
Option B is not selected for any of the descriptions as none of them imply an approach of delivering
first with the intention to re-engineer later. They all suggest a need for immediate maintainability or
a short-term fix, not a re-engineering approach.

Architecture Angels are keen to both support local businesses and to have local
people run their hotels, giving them a significant amount of autonomy to do this.
To maintain core consistency, the hotels use Architecture Angels' Head Office
services, such as IT operations, accounting, payroll, stocktaking, compliance,
human resources and property management. The Head Office is based 80 miles
from Hoy Hall.
Recently Architecture Angels commenced an Agile project to renovate Hoy Hall,
which has a large downstairs hall and reception area, and 20 potential
bedrooms upstairs. The roof requires extensive repairs and the electrical and
plumbing installations require complete replacement. The 40 acres of land
around the site are overgrown and need to be restored, and the driveway needs
re-laying.
In the hotel industry, the trend for direct customer bookings via the internet has
had a major impact on the growth of those hotels with this facility. Online
booking now accounts for around 80% of room bookings, with only 20% being
made via walk-in and telephone enquiries. Before Hoy Hall can open for
business, a reservation system must be fully operational.
Architecture Angels use contractors to manage such work and have good
relationships with two local companies: Timber Tigers (TT) who will handle the
internal works, and Earth Excavations (EE) who will handle the gardens.
A Project Manager, who has since left the company, started the Feasibility
phase. This phase has been continued by the Senior Management Team, which
consists of the Sales, Marketing, and Finance Directors and the Chief Executive.
This was scheduled to take a month and has almost been completed. A
Feasibility Assessment has been produced. An Outline Business Case has been
completed which assessed the project as being viable.
The Architecture Angels Senior Management Team will be responsible for
Steering the project.
The table below shows the appointments planned for the project team and is
subject to change.
Additional Information:
The project is approaching the end of Feasibility. The original Project Manager
was involved in drafting a Delivery Plan for the project but not in the outline
refurbishment options.
The Senior Management Team generated several options for the refurbishment.
All the options included a landscaping solution for the gardens and re-laying of the
driveway, as the solution will not be acceptable without these. However, the best
solution for the refurbishment is still under debate. The new Project Manager has
suggested that a Feasibility Prototype could consist of paper-based drawings for
each option. The "Hoy for Hoy Hall" Action Group thinks that a physically-built
representation is mandatory for a prototype and wants a small-scale model of the
recommendation for the building. The time available to produce this, however, is
limited.
Contracts for resources have not yet been signed and will be postponed until the
chosen outline solution has been agreed.
Answer the following questions about the acceptance criteria within the project.
Decide whether the approach to setting and using acceptance criteria has been applied appropriately
and select the response that supports your decision.
At the beginning of Solution Development Timebox A, the Timebox is being
planned in detail. Although Foundations was conducted at a high level, the
Prioritised Requirements List was baselined. Now the Solution Development
Team is setting detailed acceptance criteria against each requirement.
Is this an appropriate approach to setting detailed acceptance criteria?

Yes, because the Solution Development Team members will be setting acceptance criteria for the first time during Solution Development Timebox A.
C.
No, because the Solution Development Team should NOT be involved in setting acceptance criteria.
D.
No, because acceptance criteria should be set in detail against each requirement during Foundations.

Topic 1, Hoy Hall Hotel Refurbishment Project
Overview
Scenario:
Hoy Hall Hotel Refurbishment Project
(Note:
Hoy Hall, a historic, timber-framed building dating from the 17th century, was
originally the residence
of the Lords of the Manor of Hoytown. The building is registered as a Heritage
Building of Special Interest and is subject to restrictions in terms of
development. Used as a hotel for over a century, it has recently fallen into
disrepair, and for two years it has been completely unused, accelerating its
deterioration. The local community has formed the Action Group "Hoy for Hoy
Hall" to save the building, and wants to be closely involved in its future success.

advised the team NOT to set detailed acceptance criteria for this requirement until later in the
