Explanation

The primary objective of an implementation readiness evaluation is to confirm that the system fulfills the business requirements it was designed to address-that is, it does what the organization needs it to do. Schedule adherence (A) and ROI (B) are project management and financial concerns, respectively, not the core purpose of a readiness review. Policy compliance (D) is a component of the assessment but is subordinate to the broader question of whether business needs are met. A system can be on time, on budget, and policy-compliant yet still fail to meet business requirements.
