Which activity is part of the Planning and resource management process?

Question

Options

• Aallocating capacity for changes in the information provisioning
• Bdetermining which information provisioning is needed
• Cmaking a plan for the cost of changes in the information provisioning

• A
  74% (39)
• B
  8% (4)
• C
  19% (10)

Explanation

Allocating capacity for changes in the information provisioning is a core resource management activity - it directly involves distributing available resources (time, people, infrastructure) to accommodate change, which is the essence of Planning and resource management.

Option B - determining which information provisioning is needed - belongs to a demand management or needs assessment process, not resource management; it answers what is needed before any planning about capacity begins. Option C - making a plan for the cost of changes - is a financial management activity concerned with budgeting, which is a separate process from capacity and resource planning.

Memory tip: Link "Planning and resource management" to the word allocating - you can only manage resources by distributing (allocating) them. If an option talks about identifying needs or costing, it belongs to a different process (demand or financial management respectively).
