Explanation
Organizational Process Assets (OPA) are used in quantitative risk analysis as historical reference material - including studies from similar projects by risk specialists (A), information from prior similar projects (C), and industry risk databases (D). These provide calibration data for probability distributions and impact estimates. Option B - using OPA to 'determine costs of ALL risk events within the project' - is NOT a valid use of OPA. OPA provides historical and reference data to inform estimates, but the actual cost determination for specific current project risk events comes from expert judgment, simulation, and project-specific analysis, not from pre-existing organizational assets.
