Explanation

Technical Infrastructure Management (C) is responsible because it covers the physical hardware components of an IT environment - including workstations, servers, and peripherals - and their lifecycle: procurement, maintenance, replacement, and disposal. Replacing a PC that can no longer meet performance requirements is a hardware asset decision, squarely within this domain.

Application Management (A) is wrong because it focuses on managing software applications throughout their lifecycle (development, deployment, maintenance) - not the physical devices that run them. The problem here is the hardware, not the application itself.

Business Information Management (B) is wrong because it deals with managing an organization's data and information assets (data quality, governance, reporting) - not the infrastructure that supports computing.

Memory tip: Think of the word infrastructure as the "physical foundation." Any time a question involves replacing, upgrading, or maintaining physical IT equipment (PCs, servers, cables, printers), that's Technical Infrastructure Management - the domain that keeps the hardware floor solid.
