End of the additional information.

The executive has set the following tolerances for stage 2:
Time (+/- 1 week)
Cost (+/- £20,000)
Scope (using MoSCoW prioritization technique)
Risk (based on the risk appetite defined in the risk management approach)

These tolerances have been recorded in the stage plan. The project manager will report progress regularly via highlight reports to the project board and use exception reports to raise exceptions. In addition, the project assurance role will monitor the stage to provide confidence to the project board that exceptions are being reported.

How well does this apply the “manage by exception” principle, and why?

  1. It applies the principle well, because tolerances should be set for the related aspects of project performance for each stage.
  2. It applies the principle well, because the project manager needs to control the project using discrete management stages.
  3. It applies the principle poorly, because tolerances should be set for each stage against each of the six aspects of project performance.
  4. It applies the principle poorly, because it is the regular reporting of progress that should give the project board the required confidence.

  2. Yes, because the project needs to fulfill stakeholder expectations by delivering the products required.
  3. No, because there needs to be an understanding of the products from the start of the project.

End of the additional information.

ABC Company has a standard course development model with four defined stages that the company manages using PRINCE2. The project manager for the Health and Safety Training Project has recommended the stage 2 of the standard model be split into two separate stages. As a result, there will now be five management stages in the project.
Is this an appropriate application of the “tailor to suit the project” principle, and why?

  1. Yes, because the project manager can adapt or combine PRINCE2 process to suit the project.
  2. Yes, because the standard course development structure should be tailored to suit the project.
  3. No, because a simple project should have no more than two management stages.
  4. No, because the standard course development structure should be applied to the project.

End of the additional information.

During stage 3, project costs are increasing but there will still be a positive return on investment, as documented in the business case. However, corporate management has recently revised its targets for return on investment and has decided to stop the project as it will not meet the new targets.
Is this an appropriate application of the „continued business justification‟ principle?

  1. Yes, because changes in corporate strategy may impact a project’s justification.
  2. Yes, because a change in a project’s justification should trigger premature closure.
  3. No, because the project business case still justifies a project.
  4. No, because changes in corporate strategy should not impact a project once authorized.

answer to this question "what administrative safeguards should be implemented to protect the collected data while in use by manasa and her product management team? " it should be (c) for the following reasons: this administrative safeguard involves controlling access to collected data by ensuring that only individuals who need the data for their job responsibilities have access to it. this helps minimize the risk of unauthorized access and potential misuse of sensitive information. while other options such as (a) documenting data flows and (b) conducting a privacy impact assessment (pia) are important steps in data protection, implementing a "need to know" access policy directly addresses the issue of protecting data while in use by limiting access to those who require it for legitimate purposes. (d) is not directly related to safeguarding data during use; it focuses on data transfers and location.
