In PRINCE2, what is the purpose of change control?

To monitor and control the project's budget and schedule.

To ensure that all project products are of high quality.

To manage issues, including assessing, approving, and implementing changes to baselined products.

To identify and assess risks that could affect the project.

A project is developing a new logistics system. The project plan and the system architecture have been baselined. A team member discovers a critical flaw in the architecture that will cause performance issues. The project manager needs to assess the impact. The project manager is considering whether to compare the flaw against the baseline or against the original business case. What is the most appropriate reference point for this assessment?

The project baseline, because it defines the approved products and plans

The lessons log, because it contains past project knowledge

The business case, because it defines the project's justification

The risk register, because it contains potential issues

A project is building a new airport terminal. The project plan and the architectural drawings have been baselined. The project manager receives a request for change to add a new security screening area. The project manager assesses the change and determines it will cost $15,000 and take 10 days. The project board has delegated authority to the project manager to approve changes up to $10,000. The project is currently behind schedule and over budget. What should the project manager do?

Approve the change because it is a security requirement

Reject the change because the project is behind schedule

Approve the change and adjust the schedule

Escalate the change to the project board for a decision
