A is correct When designing or improving service management, it is better to start with an uncomplicated approach and then carefully add controls, activities, or metrics when it is seen that they are truly needed.

It's correct but "Only add" is not the key of this principle. You have to eliminate all not pratical. So the correct answer is B.

Selected Answer: B
Keep it simple and practical If a process, service, action or metric fails to provide value or produce a useful outcome, eliminate it. In a process or procedure, use the minimum number of steps necessary to accomplish the objective(s). Always use outcome-based thinking to produce practical solutions that deliver results.

Selected Answer: A
The correct approach when applying the guiding principle 'keep it simple and practical' is A. Only add controls and metrics when they are needed. The guiding principle 'keep it simple and practical' emphasizes the importance of avoiding unnecessary complexity and focusing on practical solutions. When applying this principle, it is recommended to only introduce controls and metrics that are necessary and directly contribute to the desired outcomes or objectives. Option A states that controls and metrics should only be added when they are needed. This approach aligns with the principle by promoting simplicity and avoiding the addition of unnecessary elements. By carefully considering the need for controls and metrics, organizations can avoid excessive complexity and streamline their processes. Option B suggests designing controls and metrics first and then removing those that do not add value. While it may seem logical to design everything upfront and then remove unnecessary elements, this approach can lead to over-engineering and unnecessary complexity.
