Why each option
The program transition plan defines how the benefits and outputs of a program will be transferred from the program team to the operational units of the organization. It ensures continuity after the program closes.
The program transition plan specifically documents the approach for transferring program deliverables, knowledge, and ongoing operational responsibility to the receiving organizational units, ensuring that the benefits produced by the program are sustainably integrated into day-to-day operations after program closure.
The program closure plan addresses the administrative and procedural steps required to formally close the program, not the specific mechanism for transferring benefits to ongoing operations.
Operational transfer plan is not a standard named plan within the PMI program management framework; the recognized term for this purpose is the program transition plan.
Benefits transfer plan is not a formally defined plan in the PMI Standard for Program Management; the standard document for transferring program outputs to operations is the program transition plan.
