Question

Options

• Aresource capacity shared within the organization
• Bproducts or service provided by the organization
• Cresource capacity shared among portfolio components
• Dfunding and equipment available within the portfolio

• B
  4% (1)
• C
  92% (24)
• D
  4% (1)

Explanation

In portfolio management, 'supply' specifically refers to the resource capacity shared among portfolio components (C). This includes human resources, equipment, funding, and capabilities that are available to be allocated across the components competing for them. It is not the organization-wide capacity (A), which is too broad, nor the products/services delivered (B), which describes portfolio outputs. Option D (funding and equipment within the portfolio) is too narrow and incomplete. Supply, in this context, is the finite pool of resources the portfolio manager must balance against the demand from active and proposed components.
