Answer - C - Program cost of quality is not an input of Quality Planning.

Key Takeaway: Quality planning is a process for setting parameters for how to identify a program’s quality standards and how the group will meet these standards. Because these guidelines have such a huge impact on critical program activities, it is crucial for Quality Planning to take place early in the life span of a program-ideally, right after defining the scope. Input items to Quality Planning are: the program scope statement, detailed description of the product, and a list of environmental factors relating to the program.
