Explanation

The communications management plan needs to be updated whenever there is a change in the frequency, type, or audience of communication. The communication management plan is a document that contains information that is required by the stakeholders. It also documents when and how the information should be distributed. It describes the information delivery needs, its format and level of detail. The communication management plan is contained in or is a subsidiary of the project management plan. Answer option D is incorrect. The project management plan is a collection of subsidiary plans, including the communications management plan. Answer option A is incorrect. The scope of the project is not being changed in this example, so there is no need to update the plan. Answer option B is incorrect. There is no plan by the name of performance management plan, so this choice is incorrect.
