Explanation

Lessons learned documentation captures the collective knowledge gained during the program, including why variances from the plan occurred, what corrective actions were taken and whether they worked, how risks were mitigated, and any other insights that would benefit future programs or projects. This makes lessons learned a forward-looking knowledge asset. Program management plan updates (C) reflect ongoing changes during execution, not retrospective analysis. Supporting details (B) and assumptions (D) are planning inputs, not process outputs that summarize program experience.
