...

You already said Metrics are part of separate quality management process ...so ultimately you got tricked

Answer id D --- all deliverable need to be inspected

All deliverables need to be inspected? Not necessarily. If you are using statistical sampling, then you would only be validating certain items within the population. And you are using statistical sampling, then you would define those standards within the Quality Management Plan. You could then technically state that you are describing the subset of deliverables that will not be inspected.

Now granted I've spent time using Lean and Six Sigma methodologies where sampling is necessary.

Out of curiosity is this a practice question you pulled from somewhere or did you write this yourself.

I can present compelling arguments for C or D to be correct.

Quality Metrics is a project document, not a component of Quality Management Plan: so I believe the right answer is C.
