Explanation
A predictive planning approach (also known as waterfall or plan-driven) emphasizes upfront planning, thorough documentation, and clearly defined stages of work. One of its key characteristics is that information is captured in standardized templates, ensuring consistency, traceability, and formal approvals at each stage.
