In a program's definition phase, a program manager in country A is assigned to expand a restaurant chain into country B. The program manager creates the program team by identifying the required project management resources.
Which of the following represents an initial step needed to evaluate available resources that are aligned with the program's needs?
The initial step needed to evaluate available resources aligned with the program's needs is identifying program resource requirements. This involves defining the types and quantities of resources needed, including human resources with specific skills and competencies, as well as technical or financial resources. By understanding these requirements first, the program manager can then proceed to assess the availability and suitability of existing resources or determine the need for external resources.
B is correct. As you need to have available resources to evaluate or access. B first and then A.
C is the right answer.
A is the right answer, skill assessment is the first step
C. Firstly you have to develop resource requirements, who do you need at all. Then availability of the resources and skills assessments.
C & D are outputs of program resources management and B is the first step to identify available resources.
C. Identifying program resource requirements. This step involves defining what types of resources (human resources, equipment, materials, etc.) are needed, along with the specific skills, competencies, and quantities required for the successful execution of the program. By clearly identifying the resource requirements, the program manager can then proceed to assess the availability and suitability of resources within the organization or determine the need to acquire resources externally.
In the program's definition phase, where the program manager is tasked with expanding a restaurant chain into a new country and needs to evaluate available resources that are aligned with the program's needs, an initial step would be: C. **Identifying program resource requirements** This step involves defining the types of resources (human, technical, financial, etc.) required for the program, based on the program's objectives and scope. It sets the foundation for further steps like assessing skills, obtaining availability information, and developing a resource management plan.
