What are resource optimization techniques used for?

To extend the duration of the project
To adjust activities to match resource availability
To reduce the quality to meet deadlines
To increase the budget for additional resources

The correct answer is: To adjust activities to match resource availability

Resource optimization techniques are used to align the project's activities with the availability of resources. This means that the activities are adjusted or rearranged in order to make the best use of the resources that are currently available. Option A is incorrect because resource optimization techniques are not used to purposely extend the duration of a project, but rather to optimize it. Option C is also incorrect because reducing the quality of a project is not a desired outcome of resource optimization techniques. And option D is incorrect because the goal of resource optimization techniques is to make the most efficient use of the available resources, rather than increasing the budget for additional resources.
