A. The ability to discover and respond to failure earlier. Progress Iteratively with Feedback. B. Standardization of practices and services. Optimize and automate. C. Understanding the customerג€™s perception of value. Focus on value. D. Understanding the current state and identifying what can be reused. Start where you are.

Should be A Progress Iteratively with Feedback o Working in a time-boxed, iterative manner with feedback loops embedded into the process allows for greater flexibility, faster responses to customer and business needs, the ability to discover and respond to failure earlier, and an overall improvement in quality.

Refer 4.3.3.2 Iteration and feedback together, 3rd bullet point the ability to discover and respond to failure earlier

A feedback loop is a term commonly used to refer to a situation where part of the output of an activity is used for new input. In a well-functioning organization, feedback is actively collected and processed along the value chain. Well-constructed feedback mechanisms facilitate understanding of: ● end user and customer perception of the value created ● the efficiency and effectiveness of value chain activities ● the effectiveness of service governance as well as management controls ● the interfaces between the organization and its partner and supplier network ● the demand for products and service

Understanding the customer's perception of value

When applying the guiding principle of 'progress iteratively with feedback' we need to have the ability to discover and respond to failure earlier to reduce any impact of downtime on the business.

The result of applying the guiding principle 'progress iteratively with feedback' is 'the ability to discover and respond to failure earlier.' This principle encourages incremental development and frequent feedback collection, allowing for early detection of issues and timely responses to rectify them. This approach promotes continuous improvement and adaptability, ultimately leading to better outcomes.

A is about Incident Mgmt.

Refer bullet point no.1 under section 4.3.3.1 end user and customer perception of the value created So the correct answer is C

-The ability to discover and respond to failure earlier It is NOT “Understanding the customer’s perception of value” (this would have been true if the word “created” was at the end, but without “created”, this option refers to “Focus on value”)

It's A

Answer is C. In a well-functioning organization, feedback is actively collected and processed along the value chain. A good feedback mechanism facilitates understanding of: “End-user and customer perception of the value created".

Answer is A as stated in section 4.3.3.2 (Iteration and feedback together) of the book.

"Progress iteratively with feedback" The ability to discover and respond to failure earlier. It's generally how software development is done.
