The term baseline is used in both disciplines project management and configuration management. Which statement is not true?

  1. Baselines in system configurations are often also referred to as deltas.

  2. In configuration management, baselines are used to control change.

  3. Project management baselines are used for performance measurement.

  4. In project management, baselines help assess variance and trends.

The correct answer is: Baselines in system configurations are often also referred to as deltas.

Baselines in system configurations are not referred to as deltas, as deltas indicate the difference between two or more baselines. Baselines in both project management and configuration management are used as a reference point for measuring changes or performance. Therefore, the statement that baselines in system configurations are often referred to as deltas is incorrect. B, C, and D are all true statements about baselines in project management and configuration management.
