Explanation
Even after a change request receives approval, a formal risk analysis must be performed before implementation begins. Risk analysis identifies potential failure points, rollback procedures, and impact to other systems, ensuring the deployment does not introduce unexpected outages or vulnerabilities. In structured change management workflows, approval grants authorization to proceed - but the detailed risk assessment and planning work is completed immediately before actual implementation. Implementing without risk analysis (B) skips a critical safeguard. End user acceptance (C) and lessons learned (D) occur after implementation, not before.
