Explanation
Alternative identification is the process of identifying and evaluating different approaches or options for completing project scope. Choosing between two acceptable options - carpet or tile - during scope definition is a textbook example of this technique. Work packages are the lowest-level deliverables in a WBS. Requirements represent what stakeholders need the project to deliver (a step that would precede this choice). Scope decomposition is the process of breaking down high-level scope into smaller, manageable components, which is distinct from selecting between viable alternatives.
