I vaguely recall that explaining the negative impacts of changes is usually a good strategy, so maybe B isn’t the least effective?

I feel like option A could be effective, but I’m leaning towards D as the least effective since it doesn't address the root cause of changes.

I remember a practice question where we discussed the impact of changes on the cost baseline, but I’m not sure if eliminating scope is really the best approach either.

I think option D might be the least effective because just telling stakeholders no more changes can create frustration.

This is a tricky one, but I think I've got it. Eliminating the scope causing the most changes seems like the least effective way to influence the factors creating cost baseline changes. I'll go with that option.

I've got a strategy - I'll eliminate the obvious wrong answers first, then focus on evaluating the remaining options more closely. Explaining the impact of changes to stakeholders could be a good approach, but I'm not sure if it's the least effective.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. Notifying stakeholders that no more changes will be allowed doesn't seem like the least effective approach to me. I'll need to re-read the options carefully.

Okay, let's see. Reviewing the scope with the functional manager seems like a good first step to understand the drivers of change. Eliminating the scope causing the most changes could also be effective.

This seems straightforward - I'd go with options A and D to automatically generate work orders with a 14-day generation horizon to meet the inspection requirements.

Okay, let's see. I think A and B are both true, but I'm not sure about the others. I'll need to review my notes on DSCP and forwarding classes.

Option D? More like 'Don't notify the stakeholders and hope the changes just go away.' That's not how project management works!
