Answer: A
The IS department should specifically consider the manner in
which resources are allocated in the short term. Investments
in IT need to be aligned with top management strategies,
rather than focusing on technology for technology's sake.
Conducting control self-assessments and evaluating hardware
needs are not as critical as allocating resources during
short-term planning for the IS department
