How is SAP's organizational change management framework connected with the SAP Activate methodology?

SAP’s OCM framework integrates with SAP Activate to align people efforts with project stages. Option A is correct because activities are phase-specific—e.g., stakeholder analysis starts in Prepare, training in Realize—ensuring timing matches project needs, like assessing readiness before design. Option C is correct as some activities span phases—e.g., communication begins in Prepare (awareness) and continues through Run (adoption updates), adapting to evolving contexts like new releases.

Option B is incorrect—OCM dimensions (e.g., strategy, leadership) are overarching, not phase-bound; they apply across the lifecycle. Option D is incorrect—Activate phases (Discover, Prepare, etc.) structure the project, not the OCM framework’s dimensions. SAP OCM syncs with Activate’s rhythm.

“The OCM framework connects to SAP Activate by assigning activity starts to specific phases and allowing some activities to span multiple phases for continuous impact” (SAP OCM Framework, Activate Integration).
