Is it just me, or does this program manager need to work on their time management skills? *shakes head* Gotta stay on top of those schedules, folks.

Piece of cake! The SPI is 0.86, and that's option D. *high-fives* These kinds of questions are my bread and butter.

Ah, I got it! The SPI is 0.86, which means the program is behind schedule. *chuckles* I wonder if the project manager is sweating bullets right now.

Wait, are we supposed to calculate the SPI or just identify it from the options? I better double-check the question.

I also believe the answer is B) .86, as the SPI indicates how efficiently the program is progressing in relation to the planned schedule

I agree with Shala, because SPI is calculated by dividing percent complete by percent planned, which in this case is 30% / 35% = .86

Hmm, this seems straightforward. I'll go with option B, that's the schedule performance index (SPI) for this program.
