Explanation

The program scope statement defines the program's deliverables, boundaries, and what is in and out of scope. When a new program manager takes over and wants to assess whether the program's expected benefits are being realized and whether costs are justified, the scope statement provides the baseline definition of what the program is supposed to deliver. While the business case (C) contains the original cost/benefit analysis, the scope statement is the working document that defines what the program commits to delivering - making it the reference for ongoing cost/benefit assessment as the program executes.
