• AInformation coordination
• BInformation strategy cluster
• CI-organization strategy cluster

• A

• B
  82% (18)
• C

Explanation

Option B is correct because the Information Strategy Cluster is responsible for monitoring external developments - including sector trends, competitive dynamics, and government regulations - and translating these into strategic direction for the organization's information provision. It operates at a high, outward-facing level, bridging the external environment with internal IT planning.

Option A (Information coordination) is wrong because this cluster focuses on aligning and coordinating information needs within the organization - managing internal demand and supply of information, not watching the external environment.

Option C (I-organization strategy cluster) is wrong because this cluster deals with the strategic direction of the IT organization itself (staffing, structure, capabilities), not with scanning external sector or regulatory developments.

Memory tip: Think of "Information Strategy" as the cluster that looks outward and forward - it scans the horizon (market trends, laws, regulations) to inform strategy. If a question mentions "external developments" or "government regulations," that's your cue to pick the strategy cluster, not the coordination or I-organization one.
