Question

Options

• ACreation of a new coffee shop insurance product on the existing website
• BAll correspondence sent to coffee shop owners by the new system should
• CFurther website developments to allow existing customers to access
• DThe Business Visionary will provide a formal acceptance of the coffee

• A
  7% (2)
• B
  79% (22)
• D
  4% (1)
• E
  11% (3)

Explanation

Options B and C are correct because a Prioritised Requirements List (PRL) - a key DSDM/AgilePM artifact - captures what the solution/system must do: B describes a specific system behaviour (how correspondence should be handled), and C describes a system capability (website functionality for existing customers). Both are genuine, deliverable requirements that can be prioritised and built.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A describes the overall project objective or scope statement, not an individual prioritised requirement - it belongs in the Business Case or project definition, not the PRL.
• D describes a project governance activity (Business Visionary sign-off/acceptance), which belongs in the project management plan or governance framework, not the requirements list.
• E describes a post-project evaluation activity (technique effectiveness review), which belongs in the project review or lessons learned process.

Memory tip: Filter PRL candidates with the question "Does this describe something the system must DO or DELIVER?" - if it instead describes something a person must do (accept, assess, provide) or the project's overall goal, it doesn't belong in the PRL.
