The purpose of the Controlling a Stage process in the PRINCE2 project management methodology is to provide a method for monitoring and controlling each stage of the project, ensuring that it stays on track and meets its objectives. This process is performed by the Project Manager, who is responsible for the overall management of the project.
Of the options provided, B is the correct answer. The Controlling a Stage process is primarily concerned with monitoring the progress of the project against the Stage Plan, and taking corrective action if the project is deviating from the plan. This includes identifying any deviations from the plan and implementing actions to resolve them within the tolerances set in the project's management plan.
Option A, producing a Team Plan for the work to be assigned to a Team Manager, is a task that is performed during the Managing a Stage Boundary process, which is concerned with preparing for the next stage of the project.
Option C, obtaining approvals for products delivered in a Work Package, is a task that is performed during the Managing Product Delivery process, which is concerned with ensuring that the products produced by the project are of the required quality and meet the needs of the stakeholders.
Option D, updating a Project Plan to incorporate the actuals from a Stage Plan, is a task that is performed during the Managing a Stage Boundary process, which is concerned with reviewing the progress of the project to date and updating the Project Plan and other project documents as necessary.
