Explanation

A new program component that enhances program outcomes represents a change to the program's scope - what the program will deliver. The Program Scope Management Plan (B) governs how scope changes, additions, and enhancements are documented, approved, and monitored throughout the program lifecycle. While opportunities are sometimes tracked in risk registers (A, D) in a risk management context, the addition of a new component that changes program deliverables is fundamentally a scope matter governed by the scope management plan. The Program Risk Management Plan (C) defines the approach to risk management processes, not a register for documenting specific items. The scope management plan is the correct artifact for documenting and monitoring component-level opportunities that affect program outcomes.
