PRINCE2 Practitioner Exam - Topic 4 Question 35 Discussion

Actual exam question for PRINCE2's PRINCE2 Practitioner exam

Question #: 35
Topic #: 4

Scenario

Additional Information

Extract from the Communication Management Strategy.

The project information in the table below is true, but it may not be recorded under the correct heading or be in the correct document.

Using the Project Scenario, select the appropriate response to each of the following 5 questions which have been raised by the Project Board.

The project is now at the end of the initiation stage. Having decided that the Calendar project is a relatively simple project, the Project Manager combined the Starting Up a Project process and the Initiating a Project process. No Project Brief has been produced. Instead the Project Manager used the project mandate to produce a simple Project Initiation Documentation (PlO). The PlO includes the Business Case, a product checklist and several Product Descriptions, Including the Project Product Description. Short sections are also included for each of the strategies and the controls to be applied. The Project Manager has elected to use the Daily Log to record all risks, issues, lessons and quality - results.

After the initiation stage there will be two further stages during which a small number of Work Packages will be authorized. While these are being managed, the Project Manager will hold regular checkpoints, which will support the production of weekly Highlight Reports to the Project Board.

This question provides a number of changes which may or may not be required to the Extract from the Communication Management Strategy provided in the additional information.

Which statement applies to the Introduction section?

ANo change to entry 1 because this shows the purpose and content of this document.

BAmend entry 1 to read 'This document contains the controls and reporting to be established for the project management team'.

CAmend entry 1 to read 'This document contains the means and frequency of communication between the project management team, the print company and other external parties.

I recall that the introduction should clearly outline the document's purpose. So, maybe option A is correct since it states the purpose and content effectively.

I'm a bit uncertain about whether the introduction should highlight controls or communication frequency. I feel like both aspects are important, but which one takes precedence?

I think option C makes sense because it emphasizes communication with external parties, which is crucial for project success. We had a similar question in our last practice exam.

I remember we discussed the importance of the introduction section in the Communication Management Strategy, but I'm not sure if it should focus more on controls or communication methods.

This question is testing our knowledge of Self-Service management and how to handle issues with deleting applications. I'll need to think through the different options carefully, but I feel confident I can figure this out.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know there are different methods for checking object and field permissions, but I can't quite remember the exact syntax. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Okay, let's see. The code is using `cin.getline()` to read input, so I'm guessing the output might be different from what I'd expect.

You know, with no Project Brief, I wonder if the Project Board even knows what they're supposed to be communicating about. Maybe they're just as confused as we are!

Haha, the project manager must have really wanted to keep things simple! No project brief and combining the startup and initiation processes? Bold move.

Option C seems too specific. The introduction should be a high-level summary, not get into the details of communication with external parties.

Option A makes the most sense. The introduction section should summarize the purpose and content of the Communication Management Strategy, not just the controls and reporting or external communication.
