Selected Answer: D
Prioritization ensures that the most critical requirements (e.g., high business value, regulatory compliance, or risk mitigation) are addressed first, especially when resources, time, or budget are limited. This aligns with the BABOK’s emphasis on delivering maximum value and managing constraints effectively. BABOK Reference (Chapter 5: Requirements Life Cycle Management - Prioritize Requirements): Prioritization helps stakeholders focus on requirements that deliver the greatest benefit or reduce significant risks early in the project, even if all requirements are ultimately necessary.
