Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Focus on products
Why this is correct
Focus on products requires that a project's output definitions and quality criteria are explicitly established and agreed.
- ✗
Learn from experience
Why it's wrong here
Learning from experience uses past data rather than establishing current product quality descriptions.
- ✗
Defined roles and responsibilities
Why it's wrong here
Roles and responsibilities define who does what, not the physical or intangible outputs and their quality criteria.
- ✗
Continued business justification
Why it's wrong here
Continued business justification ensures the project is worth doing, independent of product definitions.
