Explanation

Subsidiary management plans - such as the scope, schedule, cost, quality, risk, and communications management plans - are required components of the overall project management plan for any project. While their level of detail and formality can be tailored to the project's size and complexity, some form of each subsidiary plan is necessary to guide how each knowledge area will be managed. Option B is incorrect because subsidiary plans are inputs/outputs of the project management plan development process, not derived directly from the project charter alone. Option C is incorrect because subsidiary plans must be integrated, not managed in isolation. Option D is incorrect because plans must be updated as the project evolves.
