Explanation
The project sponsor is the executive-level champion who owns the project's business case and provides top-level support. Their responsibilities include securing and approving funding, removing organizational roadblocks that the project manager cannot resolve, and marketing or advocating for the project to senior leadership and other stakeholders. The PMO (A) provides governance standards, the CFO (B) oversees organizational finances broadly, and the project manager (C) handles day-to-day execution - none of these roles typically own funding approval or high-level roadblock removal.
