PRINCE2-PRACTITIONER Practices Practice Question
A PRINCE2 project is nearing its final stage. The Project Manager discovers that due to cumulative minor scope creep, the final product will fail to deliver one of the minor non-mandatory benefits listed in the Benefits Management Approach. The Executive agrees that the project can still close successfully. How should this be handled in the End Project Report?

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓

Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Reopen the Initiating a Project process to rewrite the Business Case.
Why it's wrong here
Reopening initiation at project end is unnecessary; final reporting captures the actual status.
- ✓
Document the deviation and the status of benefit realization in the End Project Report for review by corporate management.
Why this is correct
The End Project Report reviews how the project performed compared to the PID, including benefit achievements and gaps.
- ✗
Reject the project closure until the missing benefit is fully delivered by the project team.
Why it's wrong here
If the Executive agrees the project is viable and complete, closure can proceed, leaving post-project benefit tracking to operations.
- ✗
Omit any mention of the unachieved benefit to ensure the report reflects 100% success.
Why it's wrong here
Hiding deviations violates governance transparency.
