Which Practice Area belongs to Supporting Implementation (SI)?

Which Practice Area belongs to Supporting Implementation (SI)?

• A. Causal Analysis & Resolution (CAR)
• B. Planning (PLAN)
• C. Governance (GOV)
• D. Estimating (EST)

Answer: (A)

Understanding how process improvements are put into practice is what this concept is testing. Causal Analysis & Resolution fits this slot because it provides a structured way to identify the root causes of defects or problems and implement preventive actions to stop them from recurring. This directly supports implementing and sustaining improvements across projects and processes, which is the heart of Supporting Implementation. The other options align with different kinds of activities: planning focuses on defining and scheduling work, governance deals with oversight and decision rights, and estimating is about predicting effort and cost. None of these centers on analyzing issues and driving corrective actions to enable effective implementation, so they don’t belong to the Supporting Implementation area.
