Why each option

Release and deployment management owns the planning and coordination of releases, including defining and agreeing deployment plans with customers and stakeholders.

ATo standardize methods and procedures used for efficient and prompt handling of all changes

Standardizing methods and procedures for handling all changes is an objective of change management, not release and deployment management.

BTo ensure all changes to service assets and configuration items (CIs) are recorded in the configuration

Ensuring all changes to service assets and CIs are recorded in the configuration system is an objective of service asset and configuration management (SACM).

CTo ensure that the overall business risk of change is optimized

Optimizing the overall business risk of change is an objective of change management.

DTo define and agree release and deployment plans with customers and stakeholdersCorrect

Defining and agreeing release and deployment plans with customers and stakeholders is a stated objective of release and deployment management, as this process is accountable for the end-to-end lifecycle of releases from planning through live deployment. Stakeholder agreement on scope, timing, and impact is central to this process.
