Explanation
Portfolio organizational structure analysis directly defines how roles, responsibilities, authority, and accountability are assigned across portfolio components. It maps who does what within the portfolio hierarchy. Capability and capacity analysis (A) focuses on whether the organization has the skills and bandwidth to do the work - not who is responsible for what. Governance model analysis (C) addresses decision-making authority and oversight frameworks. Interdependency analysis (D) examines relationships and dependencies between components, not personnel responsibilities.
