Exam PRINCE2-Foundation topic 1 question 511 discussion

The Managing Product Delivery process in PRINCE2 is focused on: Authorizing work packages Executing and delivering products as per the work package Ensuring the team manager and project manager agree on expectations (i.e., requirements, tolerances, constraints, and delivery details) Reporting progress and confirming product completion So, the core purpose is managing the interface between the Project Manager and the Team Manager, and ensuring products are delivered to the expected quality, time, and cost parameters.

A is correct; Why the other options are not the primary purpose: B. To report progress towards the delivery of a stage's products to the project board: This is typically done through highlight reports and end stage reports.   C. To recognize that the project has no further contribution to make towards achieving project objectives: This is determined during the 'closing a project' process. D. To plan how the project will approach the work to deliver the project products: This is done during the planning stages of the project, not specifically within the 'managing product delivery' process.

17.1 Purpose: The purpose of the process of managing product delivery is to control the link between the project manager and the team manager. This is achieved by agreeing the requirements for acceptance, execution, reporting, and delivery of specialist products. The role of the team manager is to coordinate an area of work that will deliver one or more of the specialist products that form the project product. Team managers can be internal or external to the organization running the project.
