The correct answer is letter "A": strategy implementation.

Explanation:

Strategy implementation is the process by which a company puts in practice a plan. To reach the goal of the strategy, the reason why the pan is being implemented is explained and the steps that could take the plan to be successful are outlined. Strategies are likely to be written in documents to give the plan the formality of the case in the organization.
