PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Processes Practice Question
A PRINCE2 project is in the final stage. The project manager has completed all products and is now preparing for project closure. The Project Board has asked for assurance that the project has delivered its objectives. Which activity is part of the Closing a Project process?
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is thinking that Highlight Reports or work package authorizations continue into closure, but those are activities of Controlling a Stage, not Closing a Project.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Preparing the End Project Report
Closing a Project includes preparing the End Project Report, which evaluates the project's performance and confirms whether the objectives in the Business Case have been met. This report, along with the Lessons Report, helps the Project Board decide whether to approve project closure, ensuring that the project is formally closed and benefits are reviewed.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Updating the Project Initiation Documentation
Why it's wrong here
Updating the Project Initiation Documentation typically happens in Managing a Stage Boundary or when changes occur. In Closing a Project, the focus is on the End Project Report and confirming that all products have been delivered and accepted.
- ✓
Preparing the End Project Report
Why this is correct
Preparing the End Project Report is a key activity in Closing a Project. It summarizes the project's performance against the Business Case, including benefits realized and lessons learned. This report provides the Project Board with the necessary information to approve project closure.
- ✗
Authorizing the final work package
Why it's wrong here
Authorizing work packages occurs in Controlling a Stage. By the time the project is closing, all work packages should have been completed and accepted. The final work package authorization would have happened earlier, not during Closing a Project.
- ✗
Producing a Highlight Report for the final stage
Why it's wrong here
Highlight Reports are produced during Controlling a Stage to inform the Project Board of progress. They are not part of Closing a Project, which focuses on confirming delivery, reviewing benefits, and producing the End Project Report.
