PRINCE2 Foundation — Question 20

Which is a purpose of the 'initiating a project' process?

Answer options

• A. To produce a stage plan for each stage of a multi-stage project
• B. To enable the project board to decide whether it is worthwhile to initiate a project
• C. To provide a fixed point at which acceptance for the project product is confirmed
• D. To enable an organization to understand the work needed to deliver the project's products

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the 'initiating a project' process focuses on understanding the necessary work to deliver project outcomes. Option A relates to stage planning, which is not the primary focus at this stage. Option B is about decision-making but not the understanding of work required, and option C pertains to acceptance rather than initiation.
