Your company is managing a 12-month data-migration project for a financial-services client subject to strict privacy regulations. The team has identified all regulatory requirements, added them to the backlog, and completed initial training. Mid-way through execution, the sponsor asks how you will make sure the project remains compliant as new user stories are developed and code is deployed. You want an approach that detects problems early and demonstrates to regulators that the project is continuously controlled. Which action should you take to provide the MOST effective ongoing support for compliance?
Schedule recurring independent compliance audits throughout execution to verify processes and deliverables align with regulations.
Postpone development of user stories involving regulated data until the final iteration.
Reduce the frequency of stakeholder demonstrations to limit disclosure of sensitive information.
Update the project management plan only when the client's legal team requests a change.
Scheduling recurring independent compliance audits provides systematic, evidence-based checks that the team is following required controls and that artifacts remain aligned with evolving regulations. Because audits are performed at defined intervals during execution, any deviations are detected early and corrective actions can be taken before they become reportable violations. Simply updating documentation on request, delaying regulated work, or limiting stakeholder visibility does not actively monitor adherence and therefore cannot assure regulators of continuous compliance.
