Prepare with PRINCE2 PRINCE2-7-Practitioner exam practice material, pass for sure

At project closure, the project manager prepares the end project report, noting that the project exceeded its budget by 10% and planned duration by 15% because of additional heritage protection work. The findings are summarized for the project board and shared with the LOB Portfolio Director so that other projects can learn from them.
Which practice is being applied?

• A. Plans
• B. Business case
• C. Progress
• D. Quality

During a periodic evaluation of the security-system work package, the team manager reviews the work package description, team plan, and the related issue, risk, quality, product, and lessons information. Missing electrical cabling means that installation is now forecast to finish one week late, exceeding the work-package time tolerance.
The team manager raises the issue with the project manager and reports the current status in the checkpoint report. Is this an appropriate application of the 'evaluate a work package' activity, and why?

• A. No, because a forecast work-package tolerance breach should be reported directly to the project board in an exception report
• B. No, because only the project manager may evaluate the status of a work package and decide what it should report
• C. Yes, because the team manager should review the work-package information, report progress for the agreed period, and notify the project manager when a tolerance is forecast to be exceeded
• D. Yes, because evaluation confirms that completed quality activities are recorded and that the current status is understood by the relevant parties

The Chief Technology Officer is an influential stakeholder who strongly supports several unproven technologies for the shopping centre. Concerned about delivery risk and reputation, the project executive asks the project manager to limit the CTO's contact with the project team and other stakeholders.
Is this an appropriate approach to leading successful change, and why?

• A. Yes, because restricting the CTO's involvement would protect the project's reputation from untested proposals
• B. Yes, because influential stakeholders should be excluded when their preferred solutions create delivery uncertainty
• C. No, because the CTO should remain engaged so that their influence can support adoption across the organizational ecosystem
• D. No, because the project manager should record the technological concerns only as risks requiring formal responses

During stage 2, the design team is developing measures to minimize disruption to residents and local businesses. To build a relationship with this large external stakeholder group, the Sustainability Manager arranges a monthly newspaper article explaining the measures and inviting feedback.
Which PRINCE2 Project Management principle is MOST directly demonstrated, and why?

• A. Tailor to suit the project, because every large project is required to communicate through a local newspaper
• B. Tailor to suit the project, because the Portfolio Director is personally accountable for preparing all stakeholder communications
• C. Define roles, responsibilities and relationships, because the project is actively engaging and communicating with an external stakeholder group
• D. Define roles, responsibilities and relationships, because the Sustainability Manager must be the sole spokesperson for every project communication

The LouisShopping project is part of the LOB portfolio and is now in the 'initiating a project' process. The project manager asks the portfolio office to support preparation of the digital and data management approach.
Why is this involvement appropriate during the 'agree the management approaches' activity?

• A. Because the primary purpose of the digital and data management approach is to identify what data the project will need and to establish the appropriate security and access controls for that data
• B. Because the digital and data management approach must be consistent with the data governance standards and technical requirements that the portfolio office applies across all projects in the LOB portfolio
• C. Because a linear-sequential delivery method inherently generates a greater volume of formal data and documentation than an iterative or incremental approach, which justifies seeking specialist portfolio support
• D. Because the sequencing within the 'agree the management approaches' activity requires the digital and data management approach to be finalized before other management approaches, including the communication management approach
