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?
The principle of 'tailor to suit the project' within PRINCE2 allows for adapting the standard course development structure to suit the unique requirements of a project. In this case, splitting stage 2 into two separate stages results in better management of the project's specific needs and is a valid application of this principle. Consequently, it is appropriate to modify the standard model to ensure better alignment with the project's characteristics and objectives.
The answer is A. Yes, because the project manager can adapt or combine PRINCE2 processes to suit the project. PRINCE2 is a flexible project management methodology that can be tailored to suit the specific needs and circumstances of each project1. This includes adapting the number of management stages based on the complexity and requirements of the proje
B is wrong because development structure shouldn't be tailored. Prince2 process should be tailored.
Correct option is B - Standard course development model should be tailored to suit the project need.
