Explanation
The communications management plan is the authoritative document that describes what information is communicated to each stakeholder, in what format, at what level of detail, how frequently, and through which channel. When a project manager needs to tailor a status report for a specific stakeholder, this plan provides the precise guidance needed. Option A (organizational process assets) are historical information and templates from the organization, but they do not specify stakeholder-specific communication preferences for this project. Option B (change management plan) governs how changes to the project are processed - it is unrelated to communication detail levels. Option D (resource management plan) covers how project resources are categorized, acquired, and managed - not communication needs.
