PRINCE2 Foundation — Question 286

In the ‘starting up a project’ process, what is the PRINCE2 name for a ‘request for proposal’ received by an external supplier?

Answer options

• A. Project mandate
• B. Project brief
• C. Work package
• D. Project approach

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, 'Project mandate', which is the document that initiates the project and includes the request for proposal from external suppliers. The other options, such as 'Project brief', 'Work package', and 'Project approach', refer to different elements within the PRINCE2 methodology and do not specifically address the request for proposal.
