PRINCE2 Practitioner — Question 19

PROGRESS -
The project board has asked the project manager to produce highlight reports every two weeks during stage 4, as the project is near completion. The standard for the rest of the project was every four weeks.
Which statement explains why this is appropriate?

Answer options

• A. The format and content of highlight reports should meet the information needs of the project board.
• B. Progress reports should be produced at the ad hoc request of the project board during a stage.
• C. The frequency of reporting should suit the level of risk and the products being created during the stage.
• D. The frequency of reporting should suit the level of risk and products being created within the work package.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because it emphasizes that highlight reports must align with the project board's information requirements, especially as the project nears completion. Options B, C, and D do not directly address the specific needs of the project board regarding report frequency and content during this critical stage.
