What inefficiencies can result from the improper management of technology in project delivery?

• A. Faster decision making
• B. Manual data re-entry and duplication of business functions
• C. Reduced overhead
• D. Improved data accuracy

Answer: (B)

When technology in project delivery isn’t managed well, inefficiencies arise most clearly from manual data re-entry and duplication of business functions. When systems aren’t integrated or automated, information must be entered in multiple places or moved between tools, which wastes time and invites mistakes. This leads to inconsistent data, delays in reporting and decision making, and rework across teams. Properly managed technology, by contrast, aims to automate processes and create a single source of truth, reducing these redundant tasks. The other options describe outcomes you’d expect from good tech management (faster decisions, lower overhead, stronger data accuracy), which is why they don’t reflect inefficiencies.
