Explanation
Although the directive comes from the program governance board, the specific requirement for user acceptance testing (UAT) before production release must be documented where testing actually occurs and is operationalized - in each component's test plan and test cases. The program governance plan (A) defines how governance decisions are made, not how testing is executed. The program quality management plan (D) sets quality standards at the program level but does not specify component-level test execution details. Program requirements (B) capture what the program must deliver, not how components are tested. Documenting UAT requirements in the component test plans ensures the governance board's directive is traceable, actionable, and enforced at the level where delivery happens.
