Explanation

Voice of the Customer (VOC) is the process of capturing customers' needs, expectations, and preferences through interviews, surveys, focus groups, and other feedback methods - exactly what this team is doing.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • B. SIPOC is a high-level process mapping tool (Suppliers, Inputs, Process, Outputs, Customers) used to scope a project, not to gather customer input.
  • C. CTQ flowdown translates VOC data into measurable requirements - it happens after VOC, not during it.
  • D. Risk assessment identifies potential failure modes or threats to a project, unrelated to feature discovery interviews.

Memory tip: Think of VOC as "listening mode" - any time you're going out to customers to hear what they want, that's VOC. CTQ comes next, when you take what you heard and turn it into numbers.
