In a value shop, which activity is primarily about implementing the chosen solution?

• A. Problem finding
• B. Acquisition
• C. Execution and control
• D. Procurement

Answer: (C)

In a value shop, the emphasis after choosing a solution is on delivering and tracking its implementation. This is the execution and control phase: carrying out the plan, coordinating people and resources, putting the chosen solution into operation, and monitoring progress to ensure the expected outcomes are achieved. The other activities sit earlier or are supportive—problem finding identifies the issue to solve, while acquisition and procurement are about obtaining the needed inputs. The actual rollout and management of the solution is what execution and control covers, making it the best fit.
