The purpose of the 'controlling a stage' process in PRINCE2® is to ensure that the stage stays on course and reacts to unexpected events. Part of this process involves producing regular highlight reports for the project board, which summarizes the stage’s progress, highlights any issues or risks, and keeps the board informed about ongoing activities.References: PRINCE2® Foundation Manual

According to the 'exception management' technique, the team manager should raise an issue when they predict that a product will cause a work package to exceed its time tolerance. This proactive approach allows for timely decision-making and corrective action by the Project Board, ensuring that project delivery is kept on track and within the agreed tolerances. References: PRINCE2® methodology and exception management guidance.

In the ‘Managing Product Delivery’ process of PRINCE2®, the team manager’s perspective is considered by ensuring that work packages provided by the Project Manager are agreed upon by the Team Manager. This agreement includes understanding the requirements, scope, and criteria of the work packages, thus ensuring that the team manager is fully informed and agrees with what needs to be delivered.References: PRINCE2® Foundation Manual

Applying the 'tailor to suit the project' principle in PRINCE2® helps make project management less bureaucratic by allowing for adaptations based on the project's size, complexity, environment, and stakeholders' needs. This flexibility reduces unnecessary overhead and ensures that the project management approach is both effective and efficient, enhancing overall project delivery without being overly constrained by rigid processes.References: PRINCE2® Foundation Manual
