Question 299

During stage 3 the 'amended course booking procedures' are being delivered using an agile delivery approach. The work package has a fixed time and cost.

There are three sprints during the stage and the prioritized products will be handed over in a phased manner throughout the stage. As part of the 'report management stage end' activity, the project manager identified some follow-on action recommendations relating to the maintenance of the booking procedures that had been handed over.

Is this an appropriate action, why?

    Correct Answer: B

    In an agile delivery approach with fixed time and cost, it is common to hand over prioritized products incrementally throughout the stage. Identifying follow-on action recommendations related to the maintenance of these products is an appropriate action because it ensures that any necessary steps for ongoing maintenance are clearly communicated to the users who will be responsible for them after they have been handed over. This aligns with the principle of ensuring the continued value and proper use of the delivered products post-project.

Discussion
mcesarlaraOption: B

D. Incorrect. While user acceptance should indeed be obtained at the end of each sprint, identifying follow-on action recommendations is still appropriate and necessary. This ensures that there is a plan for ongoing maintenance and support for the products delivered. B. Correct. In an agile approach, products are often handed over incrementally, and users start using and maintaining them as soon as they are delivered. Identifying follow-on actions for maintenance aligns with ensuring that the products continue to deliver value post-project and that users are aware of their responsibilities.

ravi_awsOption: B

The answer is B. Yes, because the users have taken on ongoing ownership of the products handed over. In PRINCE2, the ‘Report Management Stage End’ activity involves reviewing the stage and documenting lessons learned, including any follow-on action recommendations. In this case, the Project Manager has identified some recommendations relating to the maintenance of the booking procedures that had been handed over. This is an appropriate action because it ensures that any necessary actions for maintaining the delivered products are clearly communicated to those who will be responsible for them after the project ends.
