I want to say it's a "phase review," but I keep second-guessing myself about the terminology used in our study materials.

I think the best approach here is to focus on the specific details provided in the question. The fact that it's an end-of-phase review that management is conducting suggests the answer is likely "Phase review".

Audits are more comprehensive reviews, so D) Audit isn't the right fit. C) Phase review is the way to go to describe this end-of-phase checkpoint.
