Explanation

The planning phase produces detailed management plans across all knowledge areas. A procurement plan, change management plan, change control process, and budget are all developed during planning. Option A is mostly correct but incomplete as a full set. Option C includes 'business case' and 'high-level risk,' which belong to the initiating phase. Option D includes 'lessons learned' (a closing phase output) and 'project charter' (an initiating phase document), making it incorrect. B is the most consistent set of pure planning-phase deliverables.
