Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

One of the best reasons for a PRINCE2 project to have at least two stages is that it provides structured decision points. At the end of each stage, the project board reviews progress and decides whether to proceed with the next stage, ensuring that the project remains viable and aligns with business objectives before committing further resources.

Option D seems like the right choice to me. Updating the Project Plan with actual data from the Stage Plan is a key purpose of the Controlling a Stage process.

I think option B is the correct answer. Controlling a Stage process is about managing deviations and taking corrective actions to get the project back on track.
