Topic #: 1

Beth is the project manager for the NHQ project. This project deals with fiber optic cabling in her organizational campus. Tim is the electrical engineer for her company and is the only internal resource that can complete several of the project activities that deal with the fiber optic cables. Because Tim is a highly-skilled resource, he is already scheduled on several projects within the organization and is not available when Beth needs him to complete some of the project activities.
This is an example of which term?

A. Resource calendar conflict
B. Matrix network

Because the activities in Beth's project require Tim and his skills. This is an example of an activity resource requirement. A resource constraint would also have been an acceptable answer.
Incorrect Answers:
A: A resource calendar conflict is not a valid project management term.
B: This may be a matrix organization, but matrix network is not a valid project management term.
C: Organizational process assets are things that have been created to help assist the management of the project.
