Exam PRINCE2-Practitioner topic 18 question 4 discussion

Actual exam question from PRINCE2's PRINCE2-Practitioner Edition 6
Question #: 4
Topic #: 18
[All PRINCE2-Practitioner Edition 6 Questions]

When reviewing the draft project plans, the executive has identified that it will be necessary to receive corporate investment approval during stage 3. The executive has asked the project manager to split stage 3 into two management stages (3A and 3B), with the key investment decision taking place at the end of stage 3A.
Is this an appropriate application of the 'manage by stages' principle, and why?

  • A. Yes, because shorter management stages reduce the burden on senior management
  • B. Yes, because the key investment decision will now be linked to a project control point
  • C. No, because the length of management stages should be based on product delivery
  • D. No, because splitting stage 3 into two stages will increase the complexity of the project

While stage length is ideally based on products, it is appropriate here to split a stage to properly align governance. This also does not inherently increase complexity. Therefore, B is correct - this approach applies 'manage by stages' well by linking the key investment decision to a project control point between stages.
