Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) — Question 345

When do change requests generally increase in a project?

Answer options

• A. During the project's launch.
• B. Towards the beginning of the project.
• C. During the project scope management processes.
• D. Towards the end of the project.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Change requests usually surge towards the end of a project as stakeholders review deliverables and may request adjustments for final outcomes. Early phases and the launch do not see as many changes since the project's direction is still being established. The project scope management processes focus on defining and controlling changes rather than generating new requests.
