Selected Answer: A
The correct answer is: A. Baselines Explanation: The project manager is comparing the agreed state of the products (i.e. what was planned or baselined) with the actual work being done. This is a classic use of baselines, which are reference points (such as approved product descriptions, plans, etc.) used to detect deviations and manage changes effectively. • Baselines are critical for identifying whether changes or issues exist by providing a point of comparison. • This helps determine if there is an off-specification, a request for change, or some other issue to be resolved.

C; Change Control: Change control in PRINCE2 is about managing and controlling any changes to the project's baseline. The baseline is the agreed-upon plan for the project, including the scope, schedule, cost, and the defined products (outputs).

C is correct; A. Baselines: While baselines are important for change control, they are not the specific action being taken by the project manager in this scenario. B. Change budget: A change budget is used to manage the costs of approved changes, but it's not the primary focus of the project manager's action here. D. Issue resolution: Issue resolution is about addressing and resolving issues, but the project manager's action is about proactively monitoring for potential deviations before they become major issues.
