Exam PRINCE2-Practitioner topic 26 question 5 discussion

A and E are the two statements that apply to the Monitoring and control section. Entry 11 should be deleted because it relates to the monitoring and controlling of the Project Plan, not the Stage Plan. The Project Plan is updated at the end of each stage, not throughout the stage. Entry 14 should be deleted because the Product Status Account is not an activity in the Managing a Stage Boundary process, but a management product that can be requested by the Project Manager at any time.

A Correct: It is the Stage Plan that is updated with actuals throughout the stage. Ref. 15.4.4. The Project Plan is updated at the end of each stage. Ref. 17.4.2. B Correct: The Stage Plan covers the products, resources, activities and controls specific to the stage and is used as a baseline against which to monitor stage progress. The Highlight Report is a control for the Project Board. Ref. A.16.2 C Incorrect: The Highlight Report is a management product and should be included as a deliverable within the stage, but it is also a control for the Project Board and should be identified here. Ref. A.16.2. D Incorrect: The frequency at which the stage will be reviewed should be recorded here. Ref. A.16.2. E Incorrect: A Product Status Account can be requested by the Project Manager at any time. This is likely to be required to support the Highlight Report. Ref. 15.4.5.
