Why each option

Remediation planning is a mandatory element of Change Management, ensuring that a defined back-out procedure exists before any change is approved and implemented.

ACapacity management

Capacity Management focuses on ensuring that IT infrastructure and services can meet current and future performance and demand requirements, not on planning for change failure recovery.

BChange managementCorrect

Change Management requires that a remediation plan - also called a back-out or rollback plan - be defined and approved as part of the change record before implementation begins, so that if the change fails or causes adverse effects, there is a tested and authorized procedure to restore the service to its prior stable state.

CFinancial management for IT services

Financial Management for IT services covers budgeting, accounting, and charging for IT services and has no involvement in change rollback planning.

DAvailability management

Availability Management is concerned with designing and maintaining IT services to meet agreed availability targets, not with defining procedures to reverse failed changes.
