PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Practices Practice Question
A project is in the 'Managing Product Delivery' process. The Team Manager is responsible for producing a specialist product. The Project Manager has provided a Work Package. Which of the following is an acceptable action by the Team Manager when the work is complete?
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is thinking that the Team Manager can proceed to the next Work Package or update plans without Project Manager approval, when in fact they must report completion and await authorisation.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Notify the Project Manager that the Work Package is complete and await further instructions.
When a Work Package is complete, the Team Manager must notify the Project Manager. The Project Manager then verifies that the products meet the quality criteria and approves the Work Package. This ensures that the project maintains control and that products are only accepted when they conform to requirements. The Team Manager does not have authority to proceed independently.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Notify the Project Manager that the Work Package is complete and await further instructions.
Why this is correct
According to PRINCE2, when a Team Manager completes a Work Package, they must notify the Project Manager. The Project Manager then checks that the products meet the agreed quality criteria and approves the Work Package. The Team Manager should not proceed without this approval, as it ensures that the products are complete and conform to requirements before the stage can progress.
- ✗
Request a change to the Project Initiation Documentation.
Why it's wrong here
A Team Manager does not typically request changes to the Project Initiation Documentation. If a change is needed, it would be raised as an issue and managed by the Project Manager. The Team Manager's role is to deliver the Work Package as agreed, and any deviations should be reported through the appropriate issue and change control procedures.
- ✗
Update the Stage Plan directly and inform the Project Board.
Why it's wrong here
The Team Manager does not update the Stage Plan; that is the Project Manager's responsibility. The Team Manager works within the boundaries of the Work Package and reports progress to the Project Manager. Informing the Project Board directly bypasses the Project Manager and is not in line with PRINCE2 roles and responsibilities.
- ✗
Proceed to the next Work Package without notifying the Project Manager.
Why it's wrong here
The Team Manager must not proceed to another Work Package without the Project Manager's authorisation. Each Work Package is agreed separately, and the Project Manager needs to confirm completion and check quality before authorising further work. Proceeding without notification would violate the control mechanisms of PRINCE2.
