In PRINCE2, project controls define how performance data (e.g., attendance metrics and revenue benefits) is collected, monitored, and reported, making this information part of Set up the project controls.

Rules for assessing, prioritizing, and approving change requests are explicitly documented in the Change Control Approach, so amendment prioritization belongs there.

Management of external suppliers relies on defined communication flows, responsibilities, and engagement methods, which are covered by the Communication Management Approach, not quality or risk approaches.
