Explanation

The root cause of stakeholders complaining about strategically-aligned projects not being initiated is a communication failure. If key stakeholders do not understand how prioritization decisions are made and communicated, they will be unaware of why certain projects were deprioritized or delayed. A Communication Management Plan ensures that the right information - including prioritization rationale, governance decisions, and portfolio status - reaches the right stakeholders at the right time. Option A (updating criteria) and Option B (communicating the model) are tactical actions; Option C (adding to steering committee) changes governance structure. Only Option D establishes the systemic communication framework needed to prevent such misalignment from recurring.
