Explanation

Calibration and engineering change control procedures serve two core purposes: ensuring measurement tools remain accurate (A) and preserving the reliability of manufacturing processes (C). Without calibration, measurements drift over time, invalidating quality decisions; without change control, unvetted modifications can introduce defects or process instability - both undermine product quality and regulatory compliance.

B is wrong because optimizing for production speed is a production management goal, not a purpose of calibration or change control - in fact, change control often slows changes down intentionally to ensure proper review.

D is wrong because live streaming equipment operations is a monitoring/transparency activity unrelated to the integrity functions these procedures serve.

Memory tip: Think of calibration and change control as "gatekeepers of truth" - they guard measurement accuracy (A) and process integrity (C). Both words share the theme of control and correctness, not speed or visibility.
