[All PRINCE2-Practitioner Questions]

The project is in stage 3. Zero time tolerance has been given for this stage. When checking progress, the project manager noticed that the checkpoint report from the external supplier of the 'e-learning course' is late. As work package progress information is missing, the project manager has decided to raise an exception report.

Is this an appropriate action, and why?

Option C is a bit odd. Why would the project manager check the operations and maintenance interfaces first? That seems like a waste of time when the real issue is the late checkpoint report.

Ha! The project manager is in a real pickle here. Raising an exception report is the way to go, but I bet they're wishing they had a time machine to turn back the clock and get that report on time.

I'm not so sure about that. I'd go with option D - the project manager should discuss the team plan with the supplier to see if the work will still be completed on time.

I think B is the right answer. With zero time tolerance, the checkpoint report has to be delivered on time, no exceptions.

Definitely option A. The project manager needs to raise an exception report to get guidance on how to handle this situation with the late checkpoint report.
