DCheckpoint Reports are event-driven controls

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

PRINCE2 defines event-driven controls as those that are triggered by the occurrence of certain events within the project lifecycle, such as the completion of a product or phase. These controls are essential for decision-making because they provide necessary information at key points, allowing project managers and the Project Board to make informed decisions about the future of the project.
