Quiz
- Can PRINCE2 be used for operations (business as usual)?
- What does the word temporary mean in the definition of a project?

- Are projects a way to introduce change, and why?
- A property builder must build 12 similar houses in different parts of the country in the next two years. Can each house project be considered a unique project, and why?
- Why do projects introduce uncertainty?
- Why do we need project management?
- Can PRINCE2 work with any type of project regardless of size, industry, etc.
- PRINCE2 cannot be used for operations. It is helpful for projects.
- Each project has a definite start and end, so it is temporary.
- The word organization refers to the project team, the people in the project, and how they relate to each other.
- Projects are a way to introduce change. A project creates something new, e.g., a new building or application. These give changes to the world.
- Projects are considered unique as each project will differ: location, end client, planning permissions, material prices, weather, team members, etc.…
- An exact project has not been done before; there are some unknowns, and this brings uncertainty.
- Our resources are limited (time, costs, people), and we must optimize our limited resources to get the best result from the project. This requires preparation, planning, monitoring, controlling, facilitation, problem-solving, etc.
- PRINCE2 claims to be used with any type of project, no matter its size, industry, etc., but PRINCE2 is not used much as it is hard to tailor.
