Actual exam question from PRINCE2's PRINCE2-Practitioner Edition 6
Question #: 24
Topic #: 18
[All PRINCE2-Practitioner Edition 6 Questions]

The product description for the 'classroom-based training materials' states that the classroom training should take no more than one day to deliver to attendees.
During stage 3 the Training Delivery Manager informed the project manager that it will take three days to deliver the training to attendees. Project assurance has confirmed that the project will still be delivered within project time, cost and quality tolerances. Therefore, the project manager has granted a concession for the product.
Is this an appropriate application of the 'change' theme, and why?

  • A. Yes, because no exception report is required as the project time cost and quality tolerances will not be exceeded
  • B. Yes, because the project manager is responsible for the day-to-day management of the project
  • C. No, because a concession for an off-specification needs to be approved by the project board
  • D. No, because a lessons report should be produced by the project manager when a concession is issued

Selected Answer: C
In PRINCE2, a concession for an off-specification (a product that does not meet its specified requirements) must be approved by the project board, not just by the project manager. This ensures that significant changes to the project’s products are properly authorized at the appropriate level of governance, considering their potential impact on the project’s overall objectives and benefits. The project manager should escalate the issue to the project board for their decision.

C So, based on the "manage by exception" principle, option A could be a valid approach in this specific scenario. However, it's essential to ensure that the organization's PRINCE2 processes and procedures allow for such delegation of authority and that the project manager is empowered to make decisions within tolerances. Additionally, documentation of the concession and its impact should still be maintained for transparency and lessons learned.
