• B
  8% (4)
• C
  71% (37)

Explanation

Planning and Resource Management (C) is correct because it serves as the coordinating function that translates registered helpdesk problems into concrete work assignments for IT providers - it bridges the gap between problem registration and actual resolution by allocating the right resources to the right tasks.

End User Support (A) is wrong because it focuses on the interface with users (receiving and logging problems), not on distributing work assignments downstream to IT providers.

Operational Supplier Management (B) is wrong because it governs the contractual and relational aspects of working with external suppliers - it manages who the providers are, not what tasks they receive day-to-day.

Memory tip: Think of "Planning and Resource Management" as the dispatcher - just like a taxi dispatcher takes incoming calls and assigns drivers, this process takes helpdesk registrations and assigns IT providers. The word "resource" is the key clue: assigning people/providers to problems is a resource allocation activity.
