Exam PRINCE2-Foundation topic 1 question 443 discussion

A is correct; Why other options are not the primary purpose: B. To authorize the stage plan for the next management stage of the project: This happens at the end of each stage, not during the initial initiation. C. To establish a contract between the project management team and the commissioning organization: While contracts might be involved, the primary focus is on establishing a sound basis for the project itself. D. To ensure that prerequisites are in place before starting the project: This is part of the "starting up a project" process, which follows "initiating a project."

The primary purpose of the 'Initiating a Project' process in PRINCE2 is to ensure that there is a solid foundation for the project before seeking authorization from the Project Board to proceed. This process involves developing detailed plans, defining the project scope, assessing risks, and preparing the Project Initiation Documentation (PID) to give the Project Board confidence that the project is viable and properly planned before they approve its launch.

15.1 Purpose The purpose of the process of initiating a project is to establish solid foundations for the project, enabling the business to understand the work that needs to be done to deliver the project product before committing to any significant expenditure or resources.

I think it should be D

A should've been done in the starting phase, the answer is wrong
