project vs product life cycle

Which of the following statements is true about the relationship  between Product and Project lifecycle?


-          Product life cycle occur in one or more phases of  a project life cycle


-          All products have a product life cycle, but not project life cycle


-          Project life cycle occur in one or more phases of a product life cycle


-          All projects have a project life cycle and a product life cycle


 

Each phase of a product lifecycle maybe done as a project. So I believe C is correct i.e.

Project life cycle occur in one or more phases of a product life cycle

 C

crushPMP's picture

 C?

Product Vs Project Life Cycle: If a product may encompass different projects (say ProjA, ProjB, and ProjC), we have multiple projects life cycles in a single product Life Cycle.

The wordings in A, however, confused me: "

A: -          Product life cycle occur in (one or more phases of  a project life cycle)"..

After re-reading, i think "phases", refers to "Product life cycle to mean multiple product life cycles.

 

This is wrong. But option C would be the correct interpretation in the sense of multiple project,

single product life cycles. "project life cycle occurs in one or more phases of A PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE"

 

Pls someone correct me if am wrong.
