Why each option

To address antiquated technologies within an enterprise, the Enterprise Architecture (EA) review board is the most suitable group to evaluate recommendations for modernization and alignment with strategic goals.

AEnterprise architecture (EA) review boardCorrect

The Enterprise Architecture (EA) review board is specifically responsible for defining, maintaining, and enforcing architectural standards and principles across the enterprise. Evaluating recommendations to address antiquated technologies falls directly under its purview, as it ensures new solutions align with strategic objectives and overall enterprise architecture.

BBusiness process improvement workgroup

A business process improvement workgroup focuses on optimizing operational workflows, not primarily on evaluating technology infrastructure or strategic architectural changes.

CAudit committee

An audit committee is primarily concerned with financial reporting integrity, internal controls, and compliance, not with strategic technology modernization recommendations.

DRisk management committee

A risk management committee identifies, assesses, and mitigates risks, but evaluating architectural recommendations for technology antiquatedness is a broader strategic architectural task, not solely a risk mitigation one.
