PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Processes Practice Question
Who produces Checkpoint Reports during the Managing Product Delivery process?
⚠ Common exam trap
Watch out — candidates often confuse the roles of Project Manager and Team Manager, assuming the Project Manager produces all reports, but PRINCE2 specifically assigns Checkpoint Reports to the Team Manager to maintain clear delegation and management by exception.
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
✓
Team Manager
The Team Manager is responsible for producing Checkpoint Reports during the Managing Product Delivery process. These reports provide the Project Manager with progress information on the work package assigned to the team, including achievements, next steps, and any issues or risks. This aligns with PRINCE2's principle of management by exception, where the Team Manager reports at intervals defined in the Work Package.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Project Board
Why it's wrong here
Checkpoint Reports are produced by the Team Manager during Managing Product Delivery, not by the Project Board, which receives Highlight Reports and makes stage-boundary decisions. The Board's reporting role tempts candidates because it owns tolerances and approvals, but it never authors delivery-level checkpoint documentation.
- ✓
Team Manager
Why this is correct
The Team Manager owns work package delivery and reports progress, issues and forecast to the Project Manager via Checkpoint Reports. This satisfies the stem's Managing Product Delivery requirement, since that process sits with the Team Manager, not the Project Manager or Project Board.
- ✗
Project Support
Why it's wrong here
Checkpoint Reports are produced by the Team Manager, who controls the work package and reports progress to the Project Manager. Project Support administers change control, configuration management and documentation standards, so it would be the right choice for maintaining the project's registers and logs, not for reporting delivery progress.
- ✗
Project Manager
Why it's wrong here
The Project Manager receives Checkpoint Reports and consolidates them into Highlight Reports; producing them would breach PRINCE2's role separation. This option tempts because the Project Manager owns progress reporting at project level, which is the correct answer when the question asks who authors Highlight Reports rather than Checkpoint Reports.
