Exam PRINCE2-Practitioner topic 2 question 12 discussion

Table 20.3, page 265, Its clear that the correct answer is project assurance - Option D. Project board does review the benefit management approach but in some other process, note the use of parenthesis (R) explained just below the table. As part of 'Closing a Project' process, the benefit management review is responsibility of project assurance.

As part of the 'closing a project' process, the updated benefits management approach needs to be checked to ensure that it includes appropriate activities to assess whether the actual course sales meet the agreed forecast in the business case . Therefore, the role that should undertake this review is the Project Board, which is responsible for ensuring that the project remains viable and that the expected benefits are realized . The Project Board is also responsible for approving the updated benefits management approach and ensuring that it is aligned with the business case . Therefore, option B, "Project board," is the most appropriate answer.

C is correct. Question mentions '...needs to be checked when products are being handed over' therefore it relates to Closing of Project Process - refer to Figure 20.1 which shows that the last task under Closing a Project process is 'recommend project Closure', which is then approved/rejected under the 'Directing a Project' Process. If Rejected, the Closing Project process will restart, if not the project is considered closed for the PM team. Also, 20.4.1 'Before closure of ther project can be recommended, the PM must ensure (check) that the expected results have all been achieved and delivered'.

As per table 20.3 Page 265 the reviewers for benefit management approach are Executive, senior user, senior supplier, Project assurance. So the answer could be either B or D. What am i missing? why every answer is so confusing

D is correct as per Table 20.3 page 265

Should be D In 20.4.3 Table 20.3 Says: Benefits management approach - Review in the Project assurance column

The answer is D (ref. table 20.3). The keyword here is "review", most of the reviews are entitled to the Project Assurance.

According to table 20.3 on page 265, Project Manager is responsible for benefit management approach in "Hand over products", therefore C should be correct.

A is correct

B ref table 20.3

A is correct . Ref 20.5.4.4 closing a project within programme
