Alternative Generation is correct which involves identifying many potential options as possible to meet the business objectives and fill identified gaps in capabilities. BABOK v2 4.4.4.2. However, in BABOK v3 the term "Alternative generation" is not explicitly used. Instead, the concept of generating alternatives or options is encompassed within the broader activities of Requirements Analysis and Design Definition. while "Alternative generation" may not be explicitly named as a standalone element in BABOK v3, the concept is still integral to the broader process of requirements analysis and solution design.
