Start Business Case and Organizing PracticeDuring a project, the cost-benefit ratio becomes unfavorable. What is the first action the project manager should take?
Explanation: In PRINCE2, the Business Case is the key document for justifying the project's continued viability. When the cost-benefit ratio becomes unfavorable, the project manager must escalate this issue to the project board, which holds the authority to approve changes to the Business Case or decide on project continuation. Option D is correct because the project manager's first action is to request a formal review by the project board, as per the 'continued business justification' principle and the 'manage by stages' theme.
A project manager is assigned to a project where the executive is often unavailable. Which role can act as a substitute for the executive when making business case decisions?
Explanation: In PRINCE2, the Executive is the single point of accountability for the business case and must approve any changes to it. If the Executive is unavailable, no other role can substitute for this authority; the project manager must escalate the decision to the full Project Board. This ensures that business justification decisions are never made without the accountable party or the collective board.
A project is in its closing stage. The business case shows that all planned benefits have been realized. What should the project manager do?
Explanation: In PRINCE2, the closing stage requires the project manager to formally confirm that all planned benefits have been realized. Updating the Business Case with actual benefits and producing the End Project Report is the correct action because it provides a formal record of benefit realization and lessons learned, which is essential for organizational learning and project closure. This aligns with the PRINCE2 principle of 'continued business justification' and the 'Closing a Project' process.
Which role is responsible for ensuring that the project delivers the expected benefits?
Explanation: The Senior User is responsible for specifying the benefits and ensuring that the project delivers them, as defined in the PRINCE2 Business Case theme. This role represents the interests of those who will use the project's outputs and is accountable for realizing the expected benefits after the project is completed.
Which TWO documents are created during the Starting up a Project process?
Explanation: In PRINCE2, the Starting up a Project (SU) process produces two key management products: the Project Brief (option D) and the Business Case (option C). The Project Brief is the baseline document that defines the project's objectives, scope, and justification, and it is assembled during SU from the Project Mandate, the Lessons Log, and the Project Product Description. The Business Case is also created in SU as an outline version, providing the business justification that will be refined in the Initiating a Project process. The Project Plan (option A) is created in Initiating a Project, not SU, and the End Project Report (option B) is produced in the Closing a Project process. The Risk Register (option E) is created in Initiating a Project, not during Starting up a Project.
