PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Processes Practice Question
Which process ensures that the project's products are formally handed over to the operational environment?
⚠ Common exam trap
PRINCE2 candidates often confuse Managing Product Delivery with Closing a Project for the handover; however, Managing Product Delivery only covers delivery of products within the project, not the formal transfer to operations, which is exclusive to Closing a Project.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Closing a Project
The Closing a Project process is responsible for ensuring that the project's products are formally handed over to the operational environment, as it includes the 'Hand over Products' activity. This process verifies that acceptance criteria are met, obtains formal acceptance, and transfers ownership to the operational team, aligning with PRINCE2's focus on controlled closure.
