Unlike project-level reviews, they are not focused on detailed lifecycle metrics (B). Approving or rejecting change controls (C) is a governance process, not the main intent of stage-gate reviews. Selecting and reprioritizing new components (D) is a portfolio balancing activity, not the purpose of a stage-gate review on existing components.
