Explanation

Gap Analysis (Option B) is the technique used to compare the current state of a portfolio with the desired future state, identifying the 'gap' that must be addressed. After a strategic change, the portfolio's current alignment diverges from the new strategic objectives. Gap Analysis quantifies this difference and determines the scope of work required to bridge it - which components need to change, what new work is needed, and what can be removed. Option A (Change Analysis) evaluates the impact of changes but does not specifically measure the volume of re-alignment work. Option C (Readiness Assessment) evaluates organizational readiness for change. Option D (Stakeholder Analysis) identifies stakeholder interests, not work volume.
