ABC has experience of delivering training projects that respond to new legislation. Previous projects have had to change the acceptance criteria, due to further updates being made to legislation during the project.
What action should be taken to address this, and why?
Agree and prioritize the acceptance criteria during the initiation stage, because they can be amended through change control, if needed. By setting the acceptance criteria early, the project sets clear standards for success. However, agreeing and prioritizing them during the initiation stage while acknowledging the possibility of amendments through change control ensures flexibility to accommodate any changes in legislation. This approach balances the need for clear criteria with the flexibility to adapt to unforeseen legislative updates.
Please note that acceptance criteria are in the Project Product Description not in the Products Descriptions (there we found quality criteria) so C and D are false. B is the only choice that addresses the capability of project management to cope with a changing environment, i.e. by exploiting the change management practice.
