PRINCE2 Practitioner 6th Edition — Question 52

During the initiation stage, the project manager aligns the project's risk management approach to ABC Company's risk management policy. As a result, the project will use two risk registers, one for ABC Company's risks and one for external supplier risks.
Is this an appropriate application of the 'tailor to suit the project' principle, and why?

Answer options

• A. Yes, because the risk management approach should comply with the supplier's needs.
• B. Yes, because project controls should take the project's environment into account.
• C. No, because all three stakeholder interests need to be represented effectively on the project.
• D. No, because a single risk register should be used to record risks to the project.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because tailoring the risk management approach to consider the project's specific environment is essential for effective project controls. Options A and C are incorrect as they misinterpret the need for alignment with the project's context, while D is wrong because using two registers can be justified if it enhances clarity in risk management.
