Explanation

Big Deal Alerts are a specialized, "out-of-the-box" notification feature specifically for the Opportunity object. This tool allows a Platform Administrator to define a threshold based on "Amount" and "Probability." When an opportunity is created or updated and meets these thresholds (in this case, >$250k and >75%), Salesforce automatically sends an email notification to a specified user or a list of stakeholders. This is the most efficient way to meet the requirement because it is a native feature designed exactly for high-value deal visibility. While Reports and Dashboards (Option C) can display this data, they are "pull" mechanisms that require leadership to actively check them, whereas a Big Deal Alert is a "push" mechanism that ensures immediate awareness. Guidance for Success (Option A) provides tips within a sales path, and Similar Opportunities (Option D) helps reps find related deals, but neither is designed for automated leadership notifications.
