Explanation

The project contains the following distinct spaces: 3 conference rooms + 1 break room + 12 private offices = 16 total spaces. Per BICSI and TIA-568 standards, each work area or room requires a minimum of one telecommunications outlet box. Applying the one-box-per-space minimum: 3 + 1 + 12 = 16 outlet boxes. This is the absolute minimum. In practice, additional outlets would be recommended (especially in conference rooms), but the question asks only for the minimum, which is 16.
