A . Because their expectations of benefits should guide the design and implementation of the PMO:

This is the most comprehensive and accurate answer. Understanding stakeholder expectations is

crucial for aligning the PMO's goals and activities with the organization's needs. It ensures the PMO

delivers value and remains relevant.

B . Because their support is critical for the success and continuation of the PMO: While stakeholder

support is important, it's a consequence of meeting their expectations, not the primary reason for

understanding them.

C . Because they will be influenced by the work the PMO does across the organization: This is true,

but it's more of an outcome than a reason for proactively identifying and understanding

stakeholders.

D . Because they are responsible for funding the costs of the PMO's operations: Funding is a factor,

but it's not the core reason for stakeholder analysis. Stakeholders can be impacted without directly

funding the PMO.
