Explanation

The portfolio management plan is the comprehensive governing document that defines how the portfolio will be managed, monitored, and controlled. It contains the details on benefits monitoring, interdependency management, change management processes, and-critically-the responsibilities and accountabilities for all portfolio management activities. The portfolio charter (A) authorizes the portfolio but does not detail operational responsibilities. The portfolio performance plan (C) focuses specifically on performance measurement. The portfolio strategic plan (D) links the portfolio to organizational strategy. Responsibilities, accountabilities, and monitoring protocols live in the portfolio management plan as the operational guide.
