Which factor may influence the acquisition of a project team?

  1. Market demand, economic conditions, stakeholder risk tolerances

  2. Existing information on human resources, personnel administration policies, organizational structure

  3. Customer satisfaction metrics, product complexity, technology updates

  4. Project funding limitations, regulatory constraints, environmental impacts

The correct answer is: Existing information on human resources, personnel administration policies, organizational structure

The correct answer is B. Existing information on human resources, personnel administration policies, and organizational structure may influence the acquisition of a project team. This information is crucial as it provides insights into the skills, availability, and roles of potential team members within the organization. By understanding the existing human resources, policies, and structure, project managers can make informed decisions about how to acquire and allocate resources effectively for the project's success. Options A, C, and D include factors that are important in project management but are not directly related to influencing the acquisition of a project team. Market demand, economic conditions, stakeholder risk tolerances (Option A) are more aligned with project planning and risk management. Customer satisfaction metrics, product complexity, and technology updates (Option C) are related to project performance and customer expectations. Project funding limitations, regulatory constraints, and environmental impacts (Option D) are more focused on project constraints and governance.
