A creative agency submits proofs for review to stakeholders from multiple companies on a regular...

In this scenario, the proofing workflow needs two stages:

Stage 1: This stage routes the proof to thecreative directorupon proof creation. By selecting "do not allow this stage to be deleted," the workflow ensures that the creative director must always review the proof before it is sent to stakeholders. This ensures consistency in the review process and makes sure the creative director is always involved.

Stage 2: This stage activates whenall decisions are madeon the parent stage (i.e., the creative director’s approval). Additionally, since the creative agency only requiresone decision from each company, the "only one decision required" setting is appropriate to speed up the process while ensuring the necessary approvals are gathered.

Option B is incorrect because setting the stage as private may hinder collaboration, and Option C suggests waiting until all decisions are approved, which is not necessary in this scenario.
