Which product is NOT created in the Managing a Stage Boundary process?

A.

In the PRINCE2 project management methodology, the Managing a Stage Boundary process is an important stage that occurs at the end of each project stage, allowing the project team to review the progress made so far, assess the results achieved and plan the next stage. The objective of this process is to gain approval to start the next stage of the project and to confirm the project's continued viability and relevance.

During the Managing a Stage Boundary process, several key products are created, including:

A. Benefits Review Plan: This is a plan that outlines the benefits that were identified during the initiation stage and how they will be reviewed and realized during the project's delivery. The Benefits Review Plan is created during the Initiating a Project process, but it may be updated during the Managing a Stage Boundary process.

B. End Stage Report: This is a report that provides a summary of the progress made during the current stage, including the results achieved, the issues and risks encountered, and the actions taken to address them. The End Stage Report is used to assess whether the objectives of the current stage have been achieved and to provide a basis for decisions about whether to proceed with the next stage of the project.

C. Lessons Report: This report captures the knowledge and experience gained during the current stage of the project, including the successes, failures, and best practices. It is used to inform future stages of the project and to ensure that the project team learns from previous experiences.

D. Exception Plan: This plan is created if it becomes apparent during the Managing a Stage Boundary process that the project will not meet its objectives, or if there is a significant change in the project's scope, time, or cost. The Exception Plan outlines the actions that will be taken to address the situation and bring the project back on track.

Therefore, the product that is NOT created during the Managing a Stage Boundary process is the Benefits Review Plan (A), as it is created during the Initiating a Project process. The other three products (B, C, and D) are all created during the Managing a Stage Boundary process.
