Why each option

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in a project scope are measurable values that demonstrate how effectively a project is achieving its objectives. A quantifiable financial reduction directly serves as a measurable project outcome.

AEfficiency gains will enable five fewer days to provide staff access

Efficiency gains will enable five fewer days to provide staff access describes a process improvement or a target for an operational metric, but not a direct KPI documented within the project scope for financial or primary objective measurement.

BThere will be a reduction in technology costs of one million dollars a yearCorrect

A reduction in technology costs of one million dollars a year is a clear, quantifiable, and measurable financial benefit that serves as a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) for project success. Documenting such a metric in the project scope defines a critical objective against which the project's financial impact will be evaluated.

CThe solution will not include integration with the finance system

The solution will not include integration with the finance system is a scope exclusion, defining what is not part of the project, rather than a measurable performance indicator.

DIT staff will be able to maintain the project after completion

IT staff will be able to maintain the project after completion describes a project success criterion related to supportability and knowledge transfer, but not a quantifiable KPI for the project's performance or business outcome itself.
