PRINCE2 Foundation — Question 319

Which PRINCE2 principle is supported by the setting of tolerances for the three levels of plan?

Answer options

• A. Manage by stages
• B. Manage by exception
• C. Continued business justification
• D. Learn from experience

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The principle of 'Manage by exception' is supported by setting tolerances because it allows for effective decision-making at different levels of the project. When tolerances are established, only deviations that exceed these limits require escalation, keeping management focused on significant issues. The other options do not directly relate to the concept of tolerances in the same way.
