Which life cycle works well in a rapidly changing environment?

  1. Overlapping Phases

  2. Sequential Phases

  3. Predictive Life Cycle

  4. Adaptive, Agile, or Change-driven Life Cycles

The correct answer is: Adaptive, Agile, or Change-driven Life Cycles

Some projects may require a lot of flexibility and adaptability due to rapidly changing environments. In such cases, the most suitable life cycle would be an adaptive, agile, or change-driven one. This type of life cycle allows for frequent changes and adjustments to be made throughout the project, ensuring that the end result meets the changing needs of the environment. In comparison, overlapping phases and sequential phases may not be as effective in handling constant changes and could result in an end product that is no longer relevant. While some projects may still require a predictive life cycle, it may not be as efficient in a rapidly changing environment as it requires a detailed plan from the start with limited room for changes. Therefore, the adaptive, agile, or change-driven life cycle is the most suitable option in such a scenario.
