Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Assess the impact of the missing requirement and submit a change request

Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Delay the start of execution until the stakeholder approves the project plan
Why it's wrong here
Delaying execution without a change request is not a formal approach; the plan may still need to be updated.
- ✓
Assess the impact of the missing requirement and submit a change request
Why this is correct
Proper change management ensures that changes are evaluated and approved before implementation.
- ✗
Inform the stakeholder that requirements were finalized and cannot be changed
Why it's wrong here
Changes can be made through formal change control, especially if they are critical.
- ✗
Add the requirement immediately to avoid customer dissatisfaction
Why it's wrong here
Adding requirements without formal review can lead to scope creep and budget issues.
