Left to right represents time. Top to bottom represents decreasing decision-making power.
Projects under PRINCE2 are divided into stages, which are logical parts of projects each of which are completed before the next can begin. Controlling a Stage deals with the inputs and outputs of a single stage: construction/receival and issuing of work packages; tracking and reporting progress through the stage; and capturing and acting on issues.
The key activities of this process are explained below.
