Explanation

Collect Requirements (A) uses facilitated workshops as a key tool and technique because these sessions bring stakeholders together in a structured setting to rapidly define, reconcile, and prioritize requirements - making them highly effective for eliciting consensus and capturing diverse needs.

Why the others are wrong:

  • Plan Communications (B) focuses on determining stakeholder communication needs and methods; its tools include communication requirements analysis and communication technology, not facilitated workshops.
  • Develop Project Team (C) uses tools like training, team-building activities, and ground rules - not facilitated workshops.
  • Report Performance (D) relies on variance analysis, forecasting methods, and reporting systems to communicate project status.

Memory tip: Think "workshop = requirements gathering." Facilitated workshops (like Joint Application Development sessions) are classically associated with bringing stakeholders into a room to collect what they need from the project - the word "collect" implies active, collaborative elicitation, which workshops enable perfectly.
