CISM study material · question 121 of 1000

While developing response options, a team finds a promising approach that the organisation's stated constraints had ruled out entirely. What does SP 800-39 say should happen?

  1. The constraint is waived silently for this decision only
  2. The option is discarded because the constraints are fixed
  3. The option proceeds without approval, since a more effective response is self-justifying once its benefit has been demonstrated
  4. The finding feeds back to the framing step, which may challenge original assumptions or established constraints
Show the answer

Answer: D. The finding feeds back to the framing step, which may challenge original assumptions or established constraints

SP 800-39 describes response work feeding back into framing: information uncovered while developing alternatives could reveal that framing removed or failed to uncover high-payoff alternatives, challenging original assumptions or constraints.
