ITIL4-DPI Exam Dumps : ITIL 4 Strategist: Direct, Plan and Improve (DPI)

DPI highlightsSWOT analysisas a key assessment tool for mergers, acquisitions, or major integrations. SWOT helps organizations understandinternal capabilities (strengths/weaknesses)andexternal market factors (opportunities/threats). This is critical when combining practices and cultures to ensure strengths are leveraged and weaknesses are mitigated. Customer satisfaction (B) and SLA analysis (D) are narrow operational measures. Change readiness (C) is useful but does not fully assess strategic alignment.

According to DPI, thecontinual improvement team’s role is to promote a culture of improvementacross the organization. Their purpose is not to own every improvement but toempower all staff to recognize and propose improvements. By enabling knowledge, training, and cultural reinforcement, they encourage everyone to participate. Options A and C are too narrow, and D is too rigid since the continual improvement model isguidance, not a strict sequence.

This reflects Lean principles embedded in DPI — improving flow, reducing waste, and enhancing efficiency. Cascading goals (A), effective practices (B), and objectives for assessments (D) are unrelated to workflow waste elimination.
