A. B. C. D.B.
During the Managing a Stage Boundary process in PRINCE2, the Business Case plays a critical role in determining the project's continued viability. The Business Case is a document that justifies the reasons for initiating or continuing a project. It outlines the potential benefits, costs, and risks associated with the project and helps the Project Board to make informed decisions about the project's future.
The Business Case is used for various purposes throughout the project's lifecycle, but during the Managing a Stage Boundary process, it is used to justify the continuing viability of the project. At the end of each stage, the Project Board must assess whether the project is still viable, and the Business Case provides the necessary information to make that assessment.
The Project Board will review the Business Case to ensure that the project's objectives are still valid and achievable, that the expected benefits are still desirable and realistic, and that the costs and risks are still acceptable. Based on this assessment, the Project Board can decide whether to authorize the project to proceed to the next stage or to stop the project.
Therefore, option B - "Justify the continuing viability of the project" is the correct answer for the question. Option A is incorrect because it refers to the authorization of the project, which typically occurs at the start of the project. Option C is incorrect because it refers to the closure of the project, which occurs at the end of the project. Option D is incorrect because it refers to the initiation of the project, which is the purpose of the Project Mandate document, not the Business Case.
