The ‘identify the programme’ process has started.

Comprehensive and Detailed 200 to 250 words of Explanation From Exact Extract of project-programme-and-portfolio-management of 5th Edition MSP:

The Organization Theme in MSP 5th Edition is concerned with defining the governance structure, roles, and responsibilities necessary for the programme to succeed. This includes not just the core programme team (SRO, Programme Manager, BCM), but also how the programme interacts with functional departments and operational managers who will be affected by the change.

In this scenario, the decision to include the Call Centre Manager and the CEngO in future planning meetings is a direct application of the Organization theme. Option A is correct because this action identifies the key individuals needed to provide leadership and operational insight within the programme's governance framework. By including these roles early in the 'Identify the programme' and 'Design the outcomes' phases, the programme manager ensures that the "right people" are involved in shaping the future state. This facilitates better stakeholder engagement and ensures that the design is grounded in operational reality. While their input will certainly affect the "Design" (Option B), the act of defining who is involved in the meetings and clarifying their role in the programme's decision-making structure is an organizational activity. Proper organization ensures that there is clear accountability and that the necessary expertise is embedded within the programme's management team from the outset.
