Exam PRINCE2-Foundation topic 1 question 382 discussion

The "focus on products" principle in PRINCE2 emphasizes that the project should be focused on delivering the defined products (outputs) that are required to meet the project's objectives and align with the business justification. The goal is to ensure that the products are clearly defined, agreed upon, and deliverable, which aligns the project work with the needs of the business or stakeholders.

Mod please change the votes are A, not B.

A is correct; Why the other options are not the primary focus of this principle: B. The project should be activity orientated to control the delivery of outputs: While activities are important, the focus is on the products themselves, not just the activities to create them. C. Relevant previous experience should be considered: This is covered by the 'learn from experience' principle. D. Stakeholder interests in the outputs should be represented at each management level: This is important for stakeholder management but not the core focus of the 'focus on products' principle.

(A) is more aligned with the business justification principle. I would agree that (B) is correct for focusing on the product.

Yes, it should be A. PRINCE2 is product/output/process-oriented and not work/activity-oriented. 3.6 ''Under the principle of focus on products, PRINCE2 requires projects to be output oriented rather than work oriented. PRINCE2 calls these outputs ‘products’.An output-oriented project is one that agrees and defines the project product prior to undertaking the activities required to produce it. The set of agreed products defines the scope of a project and provides the basis for planning and control.....it reduces the risk of user dissatisfaction and acceptance disputes by agreeing, at the start, what will be produced by the project.''

Should be A
