What describes a hybrid project approach?

• A. It uses only predictive methods
• B. It rejects change
• C. It is identical to a predictive approach
• D. It contains elements of both predictive and adaptive project approaches

Answer: (D)

A hybrid project approach blends predictive and adaptive methods, using structured planning alongside iterative delivery. It plans what can be planned and leaves room to adapt to changing requirements through iterations and feedback loops. This lets stakeholders see forecasts and still respond to real-world changes. For instance, you might detail the overall project schedule and budget, but run development in short sprints with regular reviews. That blend captures how hybrid works. The options that propose only predictive methods, reject change, or are identical to a predictive approach don’t reflect this combination.
