Which term means the fulfillment of a requirement?

• A. Conformity
• B. Continuity
• C. Compliance
• D. Conformance

Answer: (A)

The fulfillment of a requirement is compliance. Compliance means acting in accordance with defined rules, policies, or regulations and providing evidence that those requirements are met (for example, completing mandated training or following prescribed procedures). Conformity refers to aligning with standards or norms in general, without necessarily signaling that a specific requirement has been fulfilled. Conformance is about adhering to a particular standard or specification, often in technical contexts. Continuity concerns ongoing operation and resilience rather than meeting a given requirement.
