PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 217

During a sprint demo, a business representative identifies missing requirements. The agile practitioner realizes that all key stakeholders were not included during requirements detailing.

What should the agile practitioner have done to avoid the situation?

Answer options

• A. Included the stakeholders in the project planning meeting
• B. Organized an earlier demo to solicit business feedback
• C. Ensured all business leaders signed off on requirements
• D. Engaged key stakeholders periodically to collect requirements

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as regularly engaging key stakeholders helps ensure that all necessary requirements are captured throughout the project. Option A is incorrect because including stakeholders only in the planning meeting may not be sufficient for ongoing requirement gathering. Option B is also not ideal since an earlier demo may come too late for effective requirement adjustments. Option C is wrong because signing off does not guarantee that all requirements were collected adequately.
