Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
As more information becomes available, the project team can develop a rough order of magnitude (ROM) estimate, which provides a higher level of accuracy than a conceptual estimate but still allows for some flexibility as detailed information may not yet be available. The other options listed are more specific and detailed estimates that would be developed later in the project planning process.
