Why each option

Request fulfillment is the ITIL process specifically designed to handle routine, pre-approved service requests that are low risk, high frequency, and low cost.

ADemand management

Demand management is focused on understanding and influencing customer demand for services to ensure the provider can meet it, not on fulfilling routine requests.

BIncident management

Incident management is concerned with restoring normal service operation after an unplanned interruption as quickly as possible, not with handling routine service requests.

CRelease and deployment management

Release and deployment management controls the movement of releases into test and live environments, which is unrelated to handling low-risk routine requests.

DRequest fulfillmentCorrect

Request fulfillment manages standard service requests such as password resets, access provisioning, and information requests - activities that are low risk, frequently occurring, and low cost. These requests follow pre-defined, pre-approved procedures and bypass the full change management lifecycle. The process exists specifically to provide an efficient channel for these routine activities without unnecessary overhead.
